Women and Substance Abuse: Gender Transparency

By Sally J. Stevens and Harry K. Wexler

Book Overview

For every unique woman with a drug problem there is a unique treatment. Women and Substance Abuse turns away from the lost cause of blanket treatments and takes you into the world's slums and inner-city ghettoes, where the faces of addiction are as diverse as the women who bear their debilitating burdens. You'll see minority women's drug addiction for what it is--a montage of suffering and pain that only individual and specialized care can cure.
