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 have common 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.Medicine, PreventiveHealth promotionMental illnessEpidemiologyPharmacyMental healthDrug abuseCriminologyHealth Promotion and Disease PreventionMental DisorderEpidemiologyPharmacyMental HealthDrugsMedicine, Preventive.Health promotion.Mental illness.Epidemiology.Pharmacy.Mental health.Drug abuse.Criminology.Health Promotion and Disease Prevention.Mental Disorder.Epidemiology.Pharmacy.Mental Health.Drugs.615.854362.29Patel Vinood B.Preedy Victor R.MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910617305203321Handbook of Substance Misuse and Addictions2565785UNINA
