In this book he aims to counter the neglect and misunderstanding faced by families affected by addiction  an estimated one hundred million worldwide  and to highlight the personal, professional and public policy dilemmas. By drawing on personal accounts from fiction, autobiography and Professor Orford and his colleagues' own international research programme, the voices of children, wives, grandparents and friends spring to life. The penetrating and sensitive commentary, and thought-provoking questions and exercises make this book invaluable for practitioners, researchers and family members. It demonstrates the many shared experiences of family members across continents and over time, whether alcohol, drug misuse or gambling is involved. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003ci\u003eJudith Harwin, Professor of Social Work, Brunel University, UK\u003c\/i\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003ci\u003eAddiction Dilemmas\u003c\/i\u003e explores the impact of addiction on tho\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTrade Review\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e“Although the book may lend itself best to a student leadership, its diversity and links to the addiction literature will make it of interest to a wide range of professionals, as well as all who have had any personal contact with addiction.”  (\u003ci\u003eThe British Journal of Psychiatry\u003c\/i\u003e, 1 May 2012)\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTable of Contents\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003ePreface vii  \u003cp\u003eSources and Acknowledgements xiii\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e1.
