I haven't the faintest idea, but Gary Winship has a damned good go at telling me the answer. Some might say this is a largely academic book, but as an ex-psychiatric nurse and a Jo Public for the last twenty-five years, I'd say there's something in here for everyone. We've all taken drugs at some point in our lives (except, perhaps, my grandma) so one way to find out why is by reading this fascinating book.'- Jo Brand, comic, author, and actress.UKCPCompulsive behaviorPsychological aspectsDrug abusePsychological aspectsCompulsive behaviorPatientsDependency (Psychology)Compulsive behaviorPsychological aspects.Drug abusePsychological aspects.Compulsive behaviorPatients.Dependency (Psychology)616.86Winship Gary1878018United Kingdom Council for Psychotherapy.MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910967344503321Addictive personalities and why people take drugs4490501UNINA
