Abstract

During 2017, I have continuously been working on my book, "Treating Addictions: The Four Components," which is now completed and in the production stage with Routledge Publishing. My book includes eight chapters: 1) Introduction: The ACQS Model: Considering Addiction, Co-Occurring Disorders, Quality of Life, and Social Factors; 2) The Fundamentals of Addiction; 3) Addiction and Co-occurring Disorders; 4) Addiction and Quality of Life; 5) Addiction and Social Factors; 6) Spirituality, Connectedness, and Hope: The Higher Power Concept, Social Networks, and Inner Strengths; 7) Withdrawal Management and Relapse Prevention: Pharmacotherapy; and 8) Withdrawal Management and Relapse Prevention: Behavioral Therapy and Psychosocial Treatment. This book incorporates my clinical experience, my study findings, and current scientific research, providing clinicians, families, clients, and policymakers a framework to understand addiction and its treatment.
