Abstract  |
This new publication of the CQLD is the result of a review of the studies on cyberaddiction with the aim of determining its fundamentals and establishing some perspectives for the future. It offers an innovative vision with regards to a more rigorous definition of this phenomenon and it raises promising questions concerning the upcoming research of its causes, the need for a solid theory to frame it and the development of prevention, screening, diagnostic and treatment tools. |

| Abstract |
This multi-author review by British editors is divided into background, history and current situation, ‘life-in’, variations on the model and, finally, research and evaluation. Multi-authorship has led to overlaps. It was pleasing to see the early pioneers described as ‘charismatic free-thinkers...imbued with ideological viewpoints and passion...experimenting’. Were there no evidence-based practice protocols? Within a referenced history, there are ample quotes from residents outlining the changes leading to the ‘new therapeutic communities’. Central throughout have been the Encounter Groups with the experience evolving; the move from behaviour modification to social learning, from confrontation to motivation. Also, there is the tension between professional input and the focus of the community being ‘self-help’ and ‘here and now’, plus the gradual erosion of insider/outsider divisions, to becoming part of the wider community. Authoritive, prescriptive and inflexible chapters are balanced by more personal portraits of therapeutic communities. Alan Woodham’s closing personal view of working in a therapeutic community is not covered elsewhere, yet needs to be heard by those thinking of this field or funding these groups. As for residents’ experiences, Keith Burnett provides a flowing association of thoughts with quotes from individuals. He addresses the problem of high drop-out rates, and offers solutions, not just leaving the responsibility on the ex-resident as being ‘not motivated’. Examples of how to, and how not to, set up a therapeutic community in prison, are given. Re-integration within the community has been neglected for too long and Paul Goodman and Karen Nolan give a frank view of resettlement. The chapter by Barbara Rawlings on evaluation, essential in any review, is an overview of the evidence beyond ‘improvements were greatest for those that stayed the longest’. Edle Ravndal gives details of one outcome study in Norway showing a methodology which others could well copy if they wish to remain financially sound. |

| Abstract |
This Manual is a revised edition of the Treatment demand indicator (TDI) protocol version 2.0 and presents updated guidelines for reporting data on people entering drug treatment in Europe. The TDI is one of five key epidemiological indicators which provide a common European methodology for collecting and reporting core data on the number and profiles of those entering specialised drug treatment each year. TDI data are routinely used in EMCDDA analysis of the drug situation in Europe, helping to identify trends and patterns in problem drug use and to assess the use and uptake of treatment facilities. |

| Abstract |
This manual compiles basic but evidence-based prevention principles, planning rules and evaluation tips. Additionally, it provides related documentation or references for download; it is hoped that this additional material will be particularly useful for readers who have difficulty accessing the scientific prevention literature. To illustrate the theoretical discussion, an intervention example, partly based on a real-life situation, gives a practical perspective. |

| Abstract |
This is the first edition of the IDPC Drug Policy Guide aimed at national government policy makers. This publication is a collaborative effort by a number of IDPC members and partners, and brings together global evidence and best practices on the design and implementation of drug policies and programmes at national level. We are in an era of uncertainty for national policy makers in this field – drug problems and related challenges are increasing and it is increasingly clear that simple ‘war on drugs’ approaches are not succeeding in eradicating the problem. There are a growing number of policy and programme options available to address the harms that are associated with drug markets and drug use. Politicians and officials therefore face the challenge of defining a set of policies and programmes that are appropriate for the situation in their country. This guide, and the network of expertise that exists across the IDPC, is designed to help in that process. Each chapter describes the nature of the policy challenges and the range of evidence and experiences around the world, and sets out advice and recommendations for effective policy going forward. |

| Abstract |
This international report is the fourth from the Health Behaviour in School-aged Children (HBSC) study, a WHO collaborative cross-national study, and the most comprehensive. It presents the key findings on patterns of health among young people aged 11, 13 and 15 years in 41 countries and regions across the WHO European Region and North America in 2005/2006. Its theme is health inequalities: quantifying the gender, age, geographic and socioeconomic dimensions of health differentials. Its aim is to highlight where these inequalities exist, to inform and influence policy and practice and to help improve health for all young people. The report clearly shows that, while the health and well-being of many young people give cause for celebration, sizeable minorities are experiencing real and worrying problems related to overweight and obesity, self-esteem, life satisfaction, substance misuse and bullying. The report provides reliable data that health systems in Member States can use to support and encourage sectors such as education, social inclusion and housing, to achieve their primary goals and, in so doing, benefit young people’s health. Policy-makers and professionals in the participating countries should listen closely to the voices of their young people and ensure that these drive their efforts to put in place the circumstances – social, economic, health and educational – within which young people can thrive and prosper. |

| Abstract |
This handbook is designed primarily for people working in health ministries or who are responsible at the regional or municipal level for developing strategies and actions plans to reduce alcohol-related harm. The handbook begins by setting out the infrastructure needed for an effective action plan on alcohol. It then describes 10 areas for effective action: alcohol pricing, availability, marketing, illegally and informally produced alcohol, drink–driving, drinking environments, health care interventions, public awareness-raising, community and workplace action, and monitoring and evaluation. For each area, the handbook outlines strategies, lists questions to consider, offers options for action, lists partners for action and provides a short bibliography of tools and supporting materials. |
