Substance Abuse Counseling
SUBSTANCE ABUSE COUNSELING, Fifth Edition, provides a sound, practical overview of substance abuse counseling. The book is at the cutting edge of the addiction field, combining a focus on the most current empirical studies with a firm belief that clients must be treated with a collaborative and respectful approach. These core values lay the basis for individualized treatment planning, attention to the client's social environment, a multicultural perspective, and a recognition that client advocacy is part of the counselor's role. The authors believe strongly that clients differ not only in the specific behaviors and consequences associated with their drug use but also in culture, gender, social environments, physical concerns, mental health, and a host of other variables. Using an integrated approach, they describe innovative methods for meeting clients' needs through personalized assessment, treatment planning, and behavior change strategies, showing readers how to select the most effective treatment modalities for each client.
Substance Abuse Counseling
This text focuses on empirically validated ways of treating substance abusers. The authors emphasize a variety of current models and methods, and identify approaches that are still controversial. They suggest that substance abuse counselling is adapted specifically to the needs of the client. A special chapter covers the assessment and diagnosis of substance use disorders and offers a unique look at the differences between users and abusers. Relapse treatment is discussed at length, and special topics include basic pharmacology, prevention in in-and-out patient treatment settings, and the effects of substance abuse on families. This book should be of interest to degree and diploma students on courses of alcohol and drug abuse counselling in departments of counsellor education, social work, health and human services.

Moral Character
Most of us are not virtuous people; but neither are we vicious. Instead, our characters are decidedly mixed, and much more complex than we might have thought. Christian Miller presents a new account of moral character based on Mixed Character Traits. He explores how most of us are less than virtuous people but also morally better than the vicious.
