Clean: Overcoming Addiction and Ending America's Greatest Tragedy

Pragmatic. David Sheff learned what he knows about the treatment of addiction the hard way: through the agony of his son’s addiction to heroin and the many failed treatments the family endured. In his book, Clean: Overcoming Addiction and Ending America’s Greatest Tragedy, Sheff explores what seems to work and what doesn’t based on evidence. He makes clear recommendations on what to do. He indicts those programs that are not based on science and on what actually works. Any reader with an interest in addiction or mental illness will find something interesting and useful in this book.
