This book not only explores the multiple forces which impact adolescents with the result of substance abuse; it goes one step further and proposes ways in which to change the broad societal norms and values regarding substance abuse. There are a number of avenues through which change can be made and Wodarski and Feit examine early in the book these societal subsystems as areas of change: developing appropriate treatment paradigms, school and peer group environments, home and family, media, community movements, and business and industry. Other practical topics and issues covered include an empirically based teaching method called Teams-Games-Tournaments (TGT), a curriculum that supports student instruction in the adolescent curriculum and issues pertinent to the reduction of adolescent substance abuse.
