Clean
by Call Number: Browsing RC 564 .S497 2013ISBN: 9780547848655Publication Date: 2013Addiction is a preventable, treatable disease, not a moral failing. As with other illnesses, the approaches most likely to work are based on science - not on faith, tradition, contrition, or wishful thinking. These facts are the foundation of Clean, a myth-shattering look at drug abuse by the author of Beautiful Boy. Based on the latest research in psychology, neuroscience, and medicine, Clean is a leap beyond the traditional approaches to prevention and treatment of addiction and the mental illnesses that usually accompany it.
The general Circulating Collection is located on the top (second) floor of the library. The Browsing and Reference Collections can be found on the Main Floor. While we are constantly adding new titles to our holdings, these titles are featured acquisitions. You are always welcome to suggest a book for us to purchase. (Updated 10/15)
