Educating Yourself about Alcohol and Drugs: A People's Primer, Revised Edition (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9780306457838)

When drug or alcohol abuse becomes a part of our lives -- as it has for millions of Americans -- it often seems too overwhelming to combat. To do so requires the best information possible to see clearly how drags and alcohol work to disrupt and destroy our lives and the lives of those we care about the most. Marc Alan Schuckit -- one of the world's leading authorities in the field of drag and alcohol abuse -- empowers us by providing the solid facts needed to answer the pressing questions an abuser must face, and evaluating the myriad resources available to those in need -- including various in- and out-patient treatment programs, self-help groups, and government-funded centers. He walks the reader through each step toward recovery, arming us with the information we need to make rational, healthy choices, and build a life free from substances.
