Drigs and Society

The Shipping took a while, but this is the book I needed and it was in great conditions as well.

perfect!

The book came extremly fast and was in PERFECT shape. it looked brand new with no markings in it.

Altho a difficult read this is a great teaching text

This text provides informative and up to date information regarding a broad range of drug related topic. Althought the reading level is not easy, the information is extremely useful for drug counselors. The information presented regarding psychopharmacology provides an excellent base of preparation for the certification test used in many states. I highly recommend this text as well as many of the web site exercises.
