Customer Reviews

Excellent resource for both laypersons and professionals.

Thoroughly researched and well written. The Addictionary is an easy to use tool for not only understanding many terms and concepts used in connection with addictions, but for making sense of often cross-applied terms. The authors are gifted at making concise and eloquent definitions that do not ask more questions than they answer.
