The Sage Handbook of Addiction Psychology

About this book

The Sage Handbook of Addiction Psychology presents a comprehensive overview of the state of the science behind the psychology of addiction, offering a crucial resource for psychologists engaged in both research and practice.

The Handbook features a distinguished international group of contributors, all renowned specialists in their respective fields and emphasizes a forward-looking perspective. Chapters delve into psychological theories of addiction and evidence-based addiction treatment, offering practical insights on the intricacies of addiction psychology.

The handbook takes a holistic approach by incorporating neighbouring fields traditionally outside of psychology; it explores economics, genetics, public health, neurobiology, computer science, and sociology, recognizing that psychology and individual-centered perspectives are just one facet of addiction. This multifaceted approach ensures that readers gain a broad understanding of the psychology of addiction, fostering a comprehensive and nuanced comprehension of this complex subject.

With Substance Use Disorders ranking among the most prevalent mental health concerns globally, this handbook, designed from the ground up for students and researchers, is an essential resource for those seeking a deep understanding of the field of addiction psychology.
