Part of the Palgrave Insights in Psychology series, this highly
accessible text presents the main theories, evidence and ideas in
psychology, pharmacology and medicine most useful for learning
about the psychological and physical experience of addictive
behaviours. Unique in their approach, Authors Moss and Dyer employ
an innovative explanatory framework for conceptualising the onset
of psychopathology, drawing upon not only the biological, but the
social and psychological determinants most useful for understanding
behaviour. This book undertakes an interdisciplinary analysis of
how psychology thinks about the onset and treatment of addictive
behaviours such as drug use, drinking alcohol, gambling, internet
use and sex. This is an engaging and informative guide to
understanding the main approaches to treatment and strategies of
prevention for addictive behaviours. This title stands as part of
the Insights series edited by Nigel Holt and Rob Lewis, containing
versatile, quick guides to the cornerstone theories, main topics
and debates of their subjects and are useful for pre-undergraduate
students looking to find incisive introductions to subjects that
they may be considering for undergraduate study or those looking
for helpful preparatory reading for undergraduate modules in the
prospective subject.
