This book is divided into two parts. Part one describes theories and approaches to working with addictions. This includes systemic, attachment theory, and cognitive and behavioural approaches as well as considering psychodynamic and biological aspects of addictions. Part two provides an overview of the application of these psychological models and approaches to a selection of clinical addiction areas and age groups. It includes consideration of the implementation of evidence-based practice in the addictions either as the main presenting problem or co-terminous with one or more other problem area. This book is essential reading for upper-level undergraduates on general psychology courses and postgraduates on specialist courses, as well as trainee psychologists and all staff, including qualified psychologists, working with psychological approaches in the treatment sector. It will also be a resource for those staff not in addiction specialist services but where substance misuse and addictions are nevertheless encountered."--Back cover
