Addiction Medicine: Science and Practice 2011th Edition

From recent experience when attempting to buy this title. This is a two volume set. Be sure to contact the seller and ask that they send this title out as two volumes. Contact with the publisher shows that they do not sell the volumes separately. So, save yourself unneeded headaches by doing this little bit of homework before buying this title. Thankfully, amazon accepted the one volume back for a refund.On a brief review this title delivers research and thorough examination of several current topics. I am looking forward to receiving the two volumes.
