Unbroken brain : a revolutionary new way of understanding addiction / Maia Szalavitz.

Author Szalavitz, Maia, author.

Description336 pages ; 25 cm

Abstract:Alcohol, drugs, prescription meds, sex, gambling, porn, the internet. Our understanding of addiction is trapped in the idea that addiction is a crime or a brain disease. Treatment is equally outdated. Szalavitz argues that addictions are learning disorders and shows how seeing the condition this way can untangle our current debates over treatment, prevention and policy.
