Description

Expanding Addiction: Critical Essays provides a necessary shift in how we understand substance use. Edited by Granfield and Reinarman, this volume challenges the narrow disease ideology that often leads to biological reductionism in modern studies. Instead of focusing solely on biology, this book promotes a balanced contextual approach to understanding addiction. This anthology brings together a diverse range of perspectives to expose the historical and cultural frameworks used to construct the disease concept. By looking at the spaces where these concepts are deployed, readers gain a deeper understanding of the social forces at play. The collection includes foundational classic pieces alongside cutting-edge contemporary works that define the field of critical addiction studies. Whether you are a student, researcher, or professional in the social sciences, this book offers a comprehensive look at the complex nature of addiction. It moves beyond simple definitions to explore the cultural and historical contexts that shape our current understanding of the subject.
