Book excerpt: This book elaborates on the topics covered by top experts in the field of drug testing at an international symposium held in March, 1990. The book is an excellent reference for all professionals involved in the set up, performance and interpretation of results for drug testing programs using biological fluids (especially urine). U.S. and European perspectives are presented in relation to workplace testing. Organizational aspects for reliability of drug testing include topics ranging from sample collection, chain of custody, and laboratory strategies to legal and regulatory aspects. Critical reviews of analytical methodology involve descriptions and critical issues for the major presumptive and confirmatory techniques, including immunological and gas chromatographic-mass spectrometric methodologies. The book's interpretation of results takes into account the metabolic, pharmacokinetic, pharmacodynamic and clinical aspects. The final chapters of the book include topics addressing aspects for potential international harmonization.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Drug abuse persists as one of the most costly and contentious problems on the nation's agenda. Pathways of Addiction meets the need for a clear and thoughtful national research agenda that will yield the greatest benefit from today's limited resources. The committee makes its recommendations within the public health framework and incorporates diverse fields of inquiry and a range of policy positions. It examines both the demand and supply aspects of drug abuse. Pathways of Addiction offers a fact-filled, highly readable examination of drug abuse issues in the United States, describing findings and outlining research needs in the areas of behavioral and neurobiological foundations of drug abuse. The book covers the epidemiology and etiology of drug abuse and discusses several of its most troubling health and social consequences, including HIV, violence, and harm to children. Pathways of Addiction looks at the efficacy of different prevention interventions and the many advances that have been made in treatment research in the past 20 years. The book also examines drug treatment in the criminal justice setting and the effectiveness of drug treatment under managed care. The committee advocates systematic study of the laws by which the nation attempts to control drug use and identifies the research questions most germane to public policy. Pathways of Addiction provides a strategic outline for wise investment of the nation's research resources in drug abuse. This comprehensive and accessible volume will have widespread relevanceâ€"to policymakers, researchers, research administrators, foundation decisionmakers, healthcare professionals, faculty and students, and concerned individuals.
