Recenzje

'It is clear that the researchers have an intimate knowledge of their subject of study and have access to relevant sources...The good thing about this whole study is that it has brought together an impressive amount of quantitative data about services provision. In that sense, the report is highly recommendable literature for those who, for whatever reason, have some interest in the drug abuse field in Central Europe.' Addiction
