What do you experience if you miss your morning coffee, your morning cigarette, or prematurely run out of your pain medication? Why are these chemicals so addictive? Do you have a loved one struggling with an addiction? Are you struggling with an addiction? Addiction is enslaving and killing our young people, devastating families, overstressing first responders and emergency room staff, and financially draining limited healthcare dollars. Addiction is a monster that needs to be understood and contained.

Fascinating review of the mechanisms of addiction
- De Rick en 07-26-20
Concise, well-written and full of great info
Revisado: 08-15-20
This book is a great introduction to modern medical and scientific principals surrounding addiction. A quick read (or listen), but full of information. Complex concepts are explained concisely with real life comparisons that anyone can understand. The explanations on how different substances effect the brain and lead to addiction is fascinating. Dr. Hindmarsh clearly has a vast knowledge of the mechanisms of addiction and based on the modern concepts outlined in this book, it is clear he holds continued education in high regard. This is a fantastic resource for anyone seeking to deepen their understanding on how addiction works; from a medical professional, to a student writing a research paper, a concerned parent, or even someone who is addicted to a substance themselves, this is a great resource for anyone interested in the subject.
