Excellent!
This is an excellent review of international literature and practical guidance for anyone involved with opioid addiction, or curious about it. Includes an excellent discussion of the "moral basis" for resistance to maintenance treatments, debunking it thoroughly. A MUST READ for professionals and community members dealing with the heroin/pharmaceutical opiate epidemic.

Rating: 5 out of 5

This is a key book to read if you want to get to grips with the vast literature on the topic of opiate agonist maintenance. Its unusually well written and scientifically authoritative and really the best thing around on the subject at the moment
