Review
Dr. Senay speaks with a clear voice, devoid of jargon. His book is a gem of expository English prose: simple, lucid, declarative sentences. He brings an academic's command of the literature and 30 years of hands-on experience to the task of helping clinicians deal with diagnosis and treatment of addictive disorders. Both experienced clinicians and those just starting out can benefit from his wisdom[APK1]." -- Jerome Jaffe, M.D. former director of the Office of Evaluation, Substance Abuse and Mental Health Service Administration, Department of Health and Human Services
Dr. Senay, a pioneer in the field of substance abuse, has summoned his remarkable command of theory and practice to produce an eminently useful book. It can serve as an excellent text for persons entering the field, but has a level of sophistication that makes it highly valuable to the expert reader as well. A remarkable contribution, highly readable, and very informative! -- Marc Galanter, M.D., Professor of Psychiatry, Director of Division of Alcoholism and Drug Abuse, New York University School of Medicine
