Résumé : |
ENGLISH : Current approaches to the drug problem are not working and almost everyone agrees more effective solutions are needed. This comprehensive volume offers a dynamic new approach to understanding and solving the drug problem. It applies the techniques and formulations of general semantics to investigate and make recommendations about various aspects of drug abuse. General semantics, a process problem-solving approach based on the primacy of the scientific method and importance of language as a shaper of thoughts and perceptions, has a proven record of success in problem-solving across a wide variety of disciplines and fields. Topics examined include American drug history and policy, the legalization issue, drugs and creativity, treatment, and prevention. A chronological overview of drug-taking in human history and a resource guide are provided. One chapter offers an in-depth discussion of an effective drug abuse prevention model and a program using the model. (Editor's abstract.) |
