Addiction

Gene M. Heyman

About this book

"In a book sure to inspire controversy, Gene Heyman argues that conventional wisdom about addiction--that it is a disease, a compulsion beyond conscious control--is wrong. Drawing on psychiatric epidemiolioral economics, Heyman makes a powerful case that addiction is voluntary."--P. [4] of cover.
