Treatment admissions for methamphetamine addictions have increased more than fivefold in the last decade, with a federal report in 2006 showing 136,000 known cases. In this work, two experts on methamphetamine, its addiction and recovery, explain the damage done and why this drug still has a draw for addicts, physically, psychologically, and socially. Vignettes from addicts let us look inside the subculture of meth users. Authors Taylor and Covey explain why this drug and its addiction is different from other illicit drugs, and how the treatment, in order to be effective, also needs to be adjusted. Their book, focused only on the addiction avenues and paths to recovery, is a perfect companion to Covey's earlier book, "The Methamphetamine Crisis" (Praeger, 2006), which details the emergence and history of the use of this drug in the United States, as well as the social and community effects, and criminal justice approaches, successes, and failures to date.
