Addiction by Humphreys, Keith

A Very Short Introduction

Addiction by Keith Humphreys examines how addiction affects individuals and society, and its intersections with criminal justice, family, social, and medical responses. It explains what addiction is, how it develops, and how it is treated, and covers addictions to illicit and licit substances such as alcohol as well as behaviors like compulsive gambling. Humphreys summarizes evidence on treatment outcomes and the effects of laws and public policy, and he outlines the personal experience of addiction and recovery.
