In Substance

“In Substance” is a comprehensive and authoritative handbook on the science and treatment of addiction.
It addresses the topic in its full scope — from the most recent advances in basic and translational research to clinical approaches for the assessment and treatment of substance use disorders. The volume offers an integrated overview of the biological, psychological, and social dimensions of addiction, combining theoretical depth with practical clinical perspectives.

By bringing together leading experts in the field, In Substance explores the complexity of addictive behaviors through an evidence-based and multidisciplinary lens. The book seeks to provide an exhaustive and up-to-date synthesis of current knowledge, covering emerging issues such as neurobiological mechanisms, comorbid psychiatric conditions, innovative therapeutic models, prevention strategies, and public health implications.

Ultimately, In Substance aims to serve as a reference work for clinicians, researchers, and students who wish to deepen their understanding of addiction as a multifaceted phenomenon — bridging the gap between research, clinical practice, and the broader social context in which substance use and recovery take place.
