Description
How is that crack can destroy judgement, will and lives? And how is it that, sometimes, one can recover from the broken promise of crack? This book aims to answer these questions. It describes why crack is so addictive, the dangers to society, and how crack addiction can be prevented and treated. It aims to provide everyone working with or concerned about the problems of crack addiction-from psychiatrists to police, from counselor to concerned citizen-with a basic understanding of the worldwide crack epidemic. It also provides an early warning of the kinds of problem countries will face if crack abuse is underestimated and the danger signs ignored.
