The Sixth Edition has been completely revised and restructured and represents the cutting edge of research, practice, and policy in substance use disorder (SUD) treatment. A one-stop reference for evidence-based information on neurobiology, assessment, treatment, and research trends in SUDs, the book is an indispensable resource for trainees and veteran clinicians alike. Noteworthy additions are the new and substantive sections on public health issues and comorbidities, the expanded coverage of cannabis and the new chapters on digitally delivered therapies and behavioral addictive disorders.
