         thorough and up-to-date discussion available of the
         relationship between addiction and rationality. This is the
         only book-length treatment of the subject and includes
         contributions from philosophers, psychiatrists,
         neurobiologists, sociologists, and economists." "In tackling
         the critical issue of voluntary self-destructive behavior
         from many perspectives, the book will be an important
         resource for philosophers, psychologists, psychiatrists,
         economists, and sociologists."--BOOK JACKET.
