Drug Use and Abuse With Infotrac - Click here for more info

DRUG USE AND ABUSE takes an interdisciplinary approach in its coverage of current drug issues. It weaves psychological, historical, cultural, social, biological, and medical perspectives -- emphasizing the idea that a drug's effects depend not only on its properties, but also on the biological and psychological characteristics of its user. This theme is highlighted throughout, and is prominent in discussions of the individual classes of drugs, as well as in the chapters on pharmacology and psychopharmacology. This Fourth Edition features enhanced coverage of prevention and treatment, and provides updates on such contemporary issues as 'designer drugs' and the prevalence of usage. It also features a new 4-color design, questions at the beginning of every chapter that draw students into the text, and the clear writing style that has made previous editions so accessible to students at all levels. - Category: Books Reading - Misc. - New - Item: 461123689 - Drug Use and Abuse With Infotrac

Williamson uses examples from, among others, Cimabue, Michelangelo, and Rosetti.

Poor Miss Finch

Wilkie Collins's intriguing story about a blind girl, Lucilla Finch, and the identical twins who both fall in love with her, has the exciting complications of his better-known novels, but it also overturns conventional expectations. Using a background of myth and fairy-tale to expand the boundaries of nineteenth-century realist fiction, Collins not only takes a blind person as his central character but also explores the idea of blindness and its implications. His sensitive presentation of the difficulties, disappointments, and occasional delights which follow the recovery of sight by someone blind since infancy is still one of the best accounts in fiction of a problem which continues to intrigue philosophers, psychologists, and the general public, as it has done since it was first discussed by Locke and Berkeley in the eighteenth century. - Books Reading - New - 461123983 - Poor Miss Finch in shop
