ashawp's review against another edition
4.0
I appreciated several things about this book. I was very impressed that they applied addiction counseling to a diverse array of counseling professions that would not normally expect to do a lot of addiction work. This was perfect for my situation. The authors also intentionally made the writing style straight forward and even whimsical sometimes. This made the chapters flow by quickly, which leads to my last appreciation: short but sweet chapters! It was a pleasure to be assigned reading in this textbook.
