    Book description

    Alcohol use disorder is by far the most prevalent substance use disorder in the general population and is a major contributor to disease worldwide. Recovery from the disorder is a dynamic process of change, and individuals take many different routes to resolve their alcohol problems and seek to achieve a life worth living. Total abstention is not the only solution and robust recovery involves more than changing drinking practices. This volume brings together multidisciplinary research on recovery processes, contexts, and outcomes as well as new ideas about the multiple pathways involved. Experts chart the individual, social, contextual, community, economic, regulatory, policy, and structural influences that are vital to understanding alcohol use disorder and recovery. The book recommends new approaches to conceptualizing and assessing recovery alongside new avenues for research, community engagement, and policy that constitute a major shift in the practice and policy landscape.

    Reviews

    ‘The chapters in this book of are a uniformly high standard but, in addition to the excellent contributions of the two editors themselves, I found the following particularly useful:Chapter 2 … Chapter 3 … Chapter 10 … and Chapter 16 … These are just a few selections from an outstanding collection.'

    Nick Heather Source: Society for the Study of Addiction
