The Heart of
Addiction: A New Approach to Understanding and Managing Alcoholism and
Other Addictive Behaviors (Hardcover) The Truth About Addiction and Recovery
(Paperback) "THE GROWTH of addiction treatment in the United States, predicated on the idea that alcoholism and addictions of all kinds are diseases, is a public-relations triumph, and not a triumph of reason or science," says the first sentence in the book. Addictive Thinking, Second Edition: Understanding Self-Deception (Paperback), by Abraham J. Twerski, M.D. Paperback, amazon.com Kindle edition, Amazon.com Dark Paradise: A History of Opiate Addiction in America (Paperback)
"In a newly enlarged edition of this eye-opening book, David T. Courtwright offers an original interpretation of a puzzling chapter in American social and medical history: the dramatic change in the pattern of opiate addiction--from respectable upper-class matrons to lower-class urban males, often with a criminal record. Challenging the prevailing view that the shift resulted from harsh new laws, Courtwright shows that the crucial role was played by the medical rather than the legal profession. Dark Paradise tells the story not only from the standpoint of legal and medical sources, but also from the perspective of addicts themselves. With the addition of a new introduction and two new chapters on heroin addiction and treatment since 1940, Courtwright has updated this compelling work of social history for the present crisis of the Drug War."--product description at amazon.com
