Overview

Now in an extensively revised and updated second edition, this comprehensive clinical resource and text is grounded in cutting-edge knowledge about the biopsychosocial processes involved in addictive behaviors. Presented are research-based, eminently practical strategies for assessing the treatment needs and ongoing clinical outcomes of individuals who have problems with substance use and nonchemical addictions. Procedures for assessment of specific behaviors are coupled with tools for evaluating each person's coping skills, readiness to change, and risk factors for relapse. Thoroughly rewritten chapters on alcohol, tobacco, cocaine, opiates, cannabis, and eating disorders have been augmented with new coverage of amphetamines, club drugs, gambling problems, risky sexual practices, and sexual offending. Another important new chapter addresses cultural issues in assessment of diverse clients.
