Synopsis
Substance misuse and addictions are a public health issue. They affect the well-being of each community and nation as a whole. It is, therefore, necessary to identify, educate, and treat individuals who are addicted to substances. Policies and procedures go hand-in-hand with public health education and safety. The science behind the public health issues of one drug may be applicable to other drugs as well. However, marshalling all of the aforementioned information into a single source is somewhat difficult due to the wide array of material. The Editors address this by compiling the research in this single reference work that serves as a "one-stop-shopping" approach to everything readers need to know about the scientific basis of public health and addictions and agents of misuse. Apart from active agents that have a plant or chemical basis, there is a need to consider that there are other forms of addiction which may havecommon modes of causality or prevention. These include food addiction, gaming, gambling, and other non-drug addictions. These types of addiction may be related to the addiction of drugs. The Handbook of Substance Misuse and Addictions: From Biology to Public Health offers a holistic understanding of the relationship between public health and substance misuse. The text provides a common platform upon which other forms of addiction or substance misuse can be understood and treated. Addiction processes involve understanding the biological processes as well as behavior, psychology, sociology, and public health, all of which are interlinked. This Handbook is a useful reference for lecturers, students, researchers, practitioners, and other professionals in public health, addiction science, epidemiology, health education, health promotion, and health sciences.

    Description of item would have been perfect for grandchild’s needs. Sizing factor could have allowed growing room increasing added value. According to picture, packing was perfect, shipped Priority Mail. Seller communication is awesome! Their service is higher than what most may have done. I failed to double check my eBay address, item was mailed to the wrong address. BTW Kudos to the current occupants and USPS. Thank you Seller for reaching out and providing me options.

I have finally finished my fraggle rock collection, and the pricing was really good!

    There was a problem with this item. I described theproblem and uploaded a few pics After submitting it, I saw a message that the seller would be notified and I would receive something to ship it back at no cost. Several minutes later, I received a notice from the seller that my account had been refunded in full with an apology for the situation. I was told to simply throw the product away without having to send it back. if only all sellers were as classy as this one. Amazing service. Thank you.
