註釋

E. Allen Griggs, M.D., J.D. is a pathologist and attorney practicing in the forensic field. Having performed thousands of alcohol and drug-related autopsies, he grew weary of seeing young lives lost to alcohol and drugs, and trained in addiction medicine to help addicted patients recover their lives, rather than lose them. If you are concerned about addictive behavior-by your family, friends, co-workers, or yourself-then you must understand addiction and the effects it has on these people. In this manual, Dr. Griggs provides the current medical model for addiction. It is not a moral failure, but a medical disease, like cancer, heart disease, or diabetes, that responds to treatment. Addiction of all types is now understood as a genetic brain disorder. Using this manual, you will understand the addictive drugs, how one becomes addicted to them, and suffers their consequences. Stories of typical patients illustrate the slippery slope they take down the hill into the thicket of drugs and lose their way. Dr. Griggs provides a proven recovery plan and walks with you on the path out of the wilderness of addiction. Book jacket.
