Reviews

  • Barnes does a masterful job describing the science behind this complex chronic disease, as well as putting a human face on it through the lives of her patients. . . . [She] has done a remarkable job describing the science and art of addiction medicine. Hijacked Brains should be mandatory reading for medical students and primary care residents.

    PsycCRITIQUES, American Psychological Association
  • This book could profitably be used in a wide variety of settings (undergraduate and graduate) and majors (health, social sciences, social services, and medicine) to promote understanding of drug abuse and its impact on individuals. . . . Highly recommended.
