What do we mean when we talk about addiction? This anthology of
articles is designed to bring multiple perspectives to bear on that
question, a pursuit made possible by the recent explosion of
research on the scientific underpinnings of drug and alcohol
addiction. In this collection of posts from the well-respected
science blog, Addiction Inbox, you'll meet some of the researchers,
and some of the new research. You'll learn about the new synthetic
stimulant drugs now flooding American grey markets. And you'll hear
about some of the best recent books on addiction and recovery. The
articles cover health studies about drugs, addiction and
alcoholism, including the most recent scientific and medical
findings-plus interviews and book reviews. The Research section
includes posts on a wide-ranging and controversial group of
subjects, all related by an approach that highlights the underlying
science and evidence-based medicine pertinent to the subject. Is
shoplifting the opiate of the masses? Does menthol really matter?
Can ketamine and other party drugs cause permanent bladder damage?
For answers, the author looks to neuroscientists and addiction
researchers, an approach that led to his earlier book, The Chemical
Carousel: What Science Tells Us About Beating Addiction.
