“New psychoactive substances” (often called NPS or “designer drugs”) is a book category covering the rapidly evolving array of lab‑synthesized or newly marketed compounds that mimic the effects of controlled drugs but fall outside existing regulations. Titles in this genre explore the landscape from multiple angles: public health and clinical responses to intoxication and dependence; forensic and toxicological detection; epidemiology and trends; legal and policy frameworks; supply chains and online markets; and sociocultural drivers of use. Works may include research monographs, policy analyses, clinical overviews, and reference guides, emphasizing timely evidence, case studies, and international perspectives. The category is aimed at researchers, clinicians, toxicologists, public health officials, policymakers, educators, and students seeking a comprehensive understanding of the risks, regulatory challenges, and societal impacts of these emergent substances.
