Throughout the book there is an emphasis on evidence-based treatment and details of potential breakthroughs and developing treatments as they are tried and tested.Readership This textbook is intended for all Primary Care practitioners, pharmacists, primary care nurses and prison doctors who are increasingly becoming involved in the management of substance misusers.
