Book Description
Drug overdose, driven largely by overdose related to the use of opioids, is now the leading cause of unintentional injury death in the United States. The ongoing opioid crisis lies at the intersection of two public health challenges: reducing the burden of suffering from pain and containing the rising toll of the harms that can arise from the use of opioid medications. Chronic pain and opioid use disorder both represent complex human conditions affecting millions of Americans and causing untold disability and loss of function. In the context of the growing opioid problem, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) launched an Opioids Action Plan in early 2016. As part of this plan, the FDA asked the National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine to convene a committee to update the state of the science on pain research, care, and education and to identify actions the FDA and others can take to respond to the opioid epidemic, with a particular focus on informing FDA's development of a formal method for incorporating individual and societal considerations into its risk-benefit framework for opioid approval and monitoring.

Book Description
This book offers a scholarly and lively introduction to comparative criminal justice. It considers the state of crime globally and examines and reflects on the ways different countries and jurisdictions deal with the main stages in the criminal justice process, from policing to systems of trial, to sentencing, and punishment. This popular bestseller has been fully updated and expanded for the fifth edition. This textbook provides the reader with: • A comparative perspective on criminal justice and its main components. • Insight into methods for comparative research and analysis. • A discussion of global trends such as the global drop in crime, the punitive turn, penal populism, privatisation, international policing, and international criminal tribunals. • An understanding of the emerging concepts in comparative criminal justice such as security, surveillance, crimmigration, and penal exceptionalism. • Global and historical consideration of the death penalty and international criminal justice. • Increased attention to environmental crime, climate change, genocide, and police brutality. The new edition has been fully updated to keep abreast with this growing field of study and research, to include a broader coverage of the global south, and new chapters on criminology and climate change, and on victimology. In this book, lists of further reading, study questions, and boxed case studies help bring comparative criminal justice to life for students and instructors alike. This book is perfect reading for advanced undergraduates and postgraduates taking courses in comparative criminal justice and those who are engaged in the study of global responses to crime.

Book Description
"At a time of increased debate on the laws controlling the use of cannabis in the European Union, this report answers some of the questions most often asked about cannabis legislation. Using a question and answer format, basic definitions and the obligations of countries under international law are set out in a section on ‘What is cannabis and what are countries’ obligations to control it?‘ Two following sections examine the links and disparities between the content of the laws and their guidelines on the one hand and the actual implementation of the laws on the other. The final question and answer section considers whether changes in law have affected cannabis use and how much public support for legal change exists, as it looks at the future direction of cannabis legislation in Europe." -- Provided by publisher.

Book Description
There are global concerns about the proliferation and misuse of club drugs and novel psychoactive substances, yet we know little about their harms and research on clinical management and treatment remains limited. This book fills the knowledge gap by providing a detailed overview of the research evidence available to date. The book provides a framework that allows readers to understand this large number of new drugs, using classifications based on primary psychoactive effect. Within this framework, the book provides detailed reviews of the more commonly used drugs. Each chapter explores pharmacology, patterns and mode of use, acute and chronic harms, and clinical interventions supported by research evidence. An invaluable resource for clinical staff, this book will support clinicians working in the emergency department, substance misuse and addiction services, mental health services, primary care, sexual health services and more. It will also be of interest to academics and those developing drug policy.
