Deadline #7 annotated Bibliography

Pathways of Addiction: Opportunities in Drug Abuse Research

Contributor: Institute of Medicine, Committee on Opportunities(Author)
Publisher: National Academies Press


This book goes into detail about drug addiction and why people can get addicted. It also talks about the consequences of doing certain drugs such as; loss of brain activity, HIV, violence, tuberculosis, fetal effects, and crime. It talks about what people can do to get help and where to get the help.

This could help me with getting my audience aware of the effects that drugs are having on all of us not just the addicts.

This website has great sources that reference;
Medical Consequences of Drug Abuse ,Prevention Research ,Stress & Drug Abuse ,Treatment Research ,Trends & Statistics. I can use this for factual research. I will need to find good statistics and this is a good place to start.
