ISBN: 9780060928995 / Angielski / Miękka / 304 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Where do the roots of addictive behavior lie -- in our genes or in our environment, in our chemistry or in our character?

In clear, straightforward language, Dr. Ruden outlines his remarkable successful treatment program which he...

That meeting gave rise to the first edition of this volume (Miller & Heather, 1986), which focused on processes involved in moving people from one stage to the next. With the volume still in print more than a decade later, we were approached by Plenum Press with the...
