Alcohol and Drug Abuse: A Psychosocial and Spiritual Approach to Prevention

Originally published in 1985 as In Search of Nirvana and updated in 1989, Alcohol and Drug Abuse: A Psychosocial and Spiritual Approach to Prevention takes account of the extensive research on the issue in the last twenty years. It focuses on primary prevention and explores the roles and responsibilities of individuals, families and society in addressing the worldwide crisis in drug abuse. Both prevention and recovery have profoundly spiritual dimensions, and Dr Ghadirian explores these in the light of the Bahá’í teachings.
