Substance Use and Misuse is a comprehensive and practical text that
covers the core elements of substance use and misuse in both acute
and community settings. The text reflects those areas in which
health-care professionals are assuming greater responsibility for
those people misusing psychoactive substances. It adopts a
skills-orientated approach, providing a framework of good clinical
practice and is written by a group of clinicians and academics.
This book is an invaluable tool for undergraduate and postgraduate
students, educators and clinical practitioners in all branches of

others in the healing professions as well as generic and specialist
health-care professionals.
