| Abstract
|
:
|
'If thinking about addiction is going to change, the study of excessive gambling is likely to be one of the richest sources of new ideas.' (Jim Orford) This book presents a research-based model of impaired control. Impaired control is considered to be the basis of all addictive behaviours, especially gambling.
