This book attempts to answer several questions raised in current drug policy debates. Developing cost-effective drug programs and policies require a sound knowledge of drug users and their characteristics and the relationship across drugs. Who are the drug users? Can demographic factors help towards predicting drug usage? What sub-population groups should be targeted for drug campaigns and educational programs? Can a drug policy aimed at discouraging the use of one drug likely affect the use of other drugs which are its economic substitutes or complements? What are the implications of drug use? Policymakers and researchers in the area of health and social development would find this book very useful. 410 0$aDevelopments in Health Economics and Public Policy,$x0927-4987 ;$v11 606 $aMedical economics 606 $aSocial policy 606 $aHealth promotion 606 $aHealth Economics$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/W35000 606 $aSocial Policy$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/W34020 606 $aHealth Promotion and Disease Prevention$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/H27010 615 0$aMedical economics. 615 0$aSocial policy. 615 0$aHealth promotion. 615 14$aHealth Economics. 615 24$aSocial Policy. 615 24$aHealth Promotion and Disease Prevention. 676 $a338.476151 700 $aRamful Srivastava$b Pratima$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut$01424581 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910739449203321 996 $aRecreational Drug Consumption$93553883 997 $aUNINA
