About this book
The Routledge Handbook of Social Work and Addictive Behaviors
is a definitive resource about addictive behaviors, emphasizing substance misuse, gambling, and problematic technology use.

Contents are divided into five sections:- The scope and nature of addictive behavior and related problems
- Addictive behavior across the lifespan and specific populations
- Interventions to prevent and address addictive behavior and related problems
- Issues frequently co-occurring with addictive behavior
- Moving forward
