Transforming Addiction: Gender, Trauma, Transdisciplinarity

Editat de Lorraine Greaves, Nancy Poole, Ellexis Boyle
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 8 apr 2015
Choice Highly Recommended Read
Addiction is a complex problem that requires more nuanced responses. Transforming Addiction advances addictions research and treatment by promoting transdisciplinary collaboration, the integration of sex and gender, and issues of trauma and mental health. The authors demonstrate these shifts and offer a range of tools, methods, and strategies for responding to the complex factors and forces that produce and shape addiction. In addition to providing practical examples of innovation from a range of perspectives, the contributors demonstrate how addiction spans biological, social, environmental, and economic realms. Transforming Addiction is a call to action, and represents some of the most provocative ways of thinking about addiction research, treatment, and policy in the contemporary era.

Recenzii

"Transforming Addiction is a clarion call for a multidisciplinary approach to studying and treating alcohol problems... Because no current single or blended perspective or model seems to adequately encompass all addiction issues, a transdisciplinary appraoch may provide a pathway to an improved system for prevention and treatment services... Transforming Addiction will be valuable to those enganges in programs that address substance abuse and addiction. Summing Up: Highly recommended." -G.A. Blevins, emeritus, Governors State University, CHOICE
"Transforming Addiction: Gender, Trauma and Transdisciplinarity is a much-welcomed contribution, showing us quite clearly that transdisciplinarity is the future in the addiction field.  Its approach is transformative, compelling, and of great use to addiction researchers, educators, and mental health professionals."Elizabeth Ettorre, PhD, Professor of Sociology, University of Liverpool
Transforming Addiction is a significant contribution to the literature on women and addictive disorders. It challenges us to integrate research from numerous disciplines in order to improve treatment services. This edited volume is a useful text for both researchers and clinical practitioners. It moves us out of the historical, single-focused approach to addiction and applies a wider lens to enable us to view the multifaceted complexity of women’s addiction.” – Stephanie S. Covington, PhD, LCSW, Author, Helping Women Recover: A Program for Treating Addiction, Beyond Trauma: A Healing Journey for Women, and A Woman’s Way Through the Twelve Steps
“This book weaves together the threads of trauma, addiction, mental health and gender in original and exciting ways.  Different professional groups, each with their own unique skills and expertise, can together develop ways of working that are more effective than the sum of the individual parts, yet, in many countries this still does not happen.  This book provides innovative and practical approaches to making it happen.” – Moira Plant, Emerita Professor of Alcohol Studies, University of the West of England
