Résumé :
ENGLISH :
The prevention of harm from drug use, both legal and illegal, is a major concern to government departments and clinicians throughout the world. Recently, much new research has been conducted regarding global levels and patterns of drug-related harm, on common risk factors with other social problems (e.g. mental health, crime) and on the effectiveness of wide range of intervention strategies. There is a need to summarise and synthesise this new knowledge for use in a range of disciplines. Preventing Harmful Substance Use offers the most comprehensive and up-to-date advice available on the prevention of drug and alcohol abuse. Contributors provide authoritative, science-based reviews of knowledge on their areas of expertise, and make clear recommendations for the future of prevention policy and practice. A final section draws the work together and offers a framework for an integrated science of prevention. Section 1: Introduction. Section 2: Patterns of risk and related harms. Section 3: Interventions for children and adolescents. Section 4: Interventions in the community: illustrative case studies. Section 5: Legislative and regulatory perspectives on the prevention of risky drug use and harm. Section 6: The evidence base for prevention in broad perspective. Section 7: Future directions for prevention policy and research. (From the editor' s abstract)
