This first book in the Academy's Key Readings in Addiction Psychiatry compendia aims to overcome the fatalistic view that substance abusers cannot be helped by providing a look at the most up-to-date reviews in treatment of substance abuse.

First published in 2002. TREATMENT OF SUBSTANCE USE DISORDERS is a compendium of notable journal articles on the latest advances in the treatment of substance use disorders. This comprehensive resource compiled by the American Academy of Addiction Psychiatry is the first book in the Key Readings in Addiction Psychiatry series. Covering the most current issues concisely, this book serves as a quick guide for mental health professionals specializing in addiction psychiatry. It assembles outstanding contributions from the leading clinical journals in the field on the most recent treatment approaches, both pharmacological and behavioral, for the four major substance categories-alcohol and benzodiazepines, opiates, cocaine, and nicotine. With repeated use and misuse of these substances accounting for the major portion of adverse economic, medical, and social consequences of substance use disorders, this compendium is a valuable reference tool in the treatment of those suffering from substance use disorders. The American Academy of Addiction Psychiatry is seeking ways to turn this intractable problem into one with answers and cures. The American Academy of Addiction Psychiatry is a professional membership organization with approximately 1,000 members in the United States and around the world. The membership consists of health professionals who work with addiction in their practices, faculty at various academic institutions, residents, and medical students.
