Woman of substances / Jenny Valentish. by Valentish, Jenny, author. London : Head of Zeus, 2018. Subjects Women -- Drug use -- Australia.   Women -- Alcohol use -- Australia.   Women drug addicts -- Rehabilitation.   Women alcoholics -- Rehabilitation.   Substance abuse treatment facilities -- Australia. Description:  xviii, 364 pages ; 22 cm. Requests:  0 Summary:  Journalist Jenny Valentish investigates the female experience of drugs and alcohol, using her own story to light the way. Her travels around Australia take her to treatment facilities and AA groups. Mining the expertise of leading researchers, she explores the early predictors of addiction, such as childhood trauma and temperament, and teenage impulsivity. Drawing on neuroscience, she explains why other self-destructive behaviours - such as eating disorders, compulsive buying and high-risk sex - are interchangeable with problematic substance use. Valentish follows the pathways that women, in particular, take into addiction - and out again.   Copy/Holding information Location Collection Call No. Status   Hawaii State Library Social Science & Philosophy 362.29082 Va Checked In Add Copy to MyList
