The Oxford Handbook of Adolescent Substance Abuse

Edited by Robert A. Zucker and Sandra A. Brown

Description

Adolescence is a developmental period marked by dramatic and rapid biological and social transformation; it is also a time of increasing rates of experimentation with substance use. This period and the risk behaviors that often accompany it cannot be fully understood from the vantage point of any single discipline, nor can they be described by focusing on only the behavioral and social problems of the period, the characteristics of normal development, or the pharmacology and addictive potential of specific drugs. Instead, a comprehensive approach requires knowledge of the brain's systems of reward and control, genetics, psychopharmacology, personality, child development, psychopathology, family dynamics, peer group relationships, culture, social policy, and more.

Drawing on the expertise of leading researchers from multiple fields, The Oxford Handbook of Adolescent Substance Abuse provides the most comprehensive summarization to date of current knowledge about substance abuse during life's most tumultuous developmental stage. The Handbook is organized into eight sections covering the literature on the developmental context of this life period, the epidemiology of adolescent use and abuse, similarities and differences in use, addictive potential, and consequences of use for different drugs; etiology and course as characterized at different levels of mechanistic analysis ranging from the genetic and neural to the behavioral and social. Two sections cover the clinical ramifications of abuse, and prevention and intervention strategies to most effectively deal with these problems. The last section addresses the role of social policy in framing the problem and in addressing it, and explores its potential role in alleviating it. This volume's authoritative treatment of these issues and the breadth of its coverage make it suitable as a compendium of what is currently known; at the same time, its level of detail provides a reference text and a jumping off place for researchers already at work in the field.

His career focus has been the lifespan etiology of substance abuse and the development of early identification and intervention programming. He is internationally known for his research contributions to the understanding of alcoholism as a developmental disorder, and has been involved with its translational ramifications via consultancies at NIH and by developing substance abuse research infrastructure in Eastern Europe. He is a Steering Committee member and site PI for NIH's national ABCD study, author of over 300 publications and 11 books, and is recipient of the Research Society on Alcoholism's Distinguished Researcher Award. He is also past-President of the Society on Addiction Psychology.

Sandra A. Brown, Vice Chancellor for Research and Distinguished Professor of Psychology and Psychiatry at the University of California, San Diego, is internationally recognized for developmentally focused alcohol and drug research. Her primary research focuses on the impact of alcohol and other drugs on human development, progression of substance involvement, and factors influencing transitions into and out of youth alcohol and drug problems. Her research yielded pioneering information on relapse, long-term outcomes, and effective treatment for youth. She has held numerous scientific leadership positions, with awards from NIH, APA and RSA. She has more than 35 grants and 350 publications and helped lead the national effort to establish screening and early intervention guidelines for youth. She co-directs the National Consortium on Alcohol and Neurodevelopment in Adolescence and Coordinating Center of the Adolescent Brain Cognitive Development study.
