What is Standalone book about?
**__Provides students with a deeper understanding of what impacts drug use.__** The eighth edition of __Drugs, Behavior, and Modern Society__ examines the impact of drug-taking behavior on our society and our daily lives. The use and abuse of a wide range of licit and illicit drugs are discussed from historical, biological, psychological, and sociological perspectives. In today's world, drugs and their use present a social paradox, combining the potential for good and for bad. As a society and as individuals, we can be the beneficiaries of drugs or their victims. This text features a comprehensive review of psychoactive drugs, and is notable for the attention it gives to two aspects of drug-taking behavior that have been underreported in other texts: steroid abuse and inhalant abuse. This text is available in a variety of formats — digital and print. Pearson offers its titles on the devices students love through CourseSmart, Amazon, and more. **Learning Goals** Upon completing this book, readers will be able to: * Understand the impact of drug use on behavior and society. * Examine the pros and cons to drug use.
