This volume collects a grab bag of recent research concerning women and addiction. Topics include social networks, isolation, and the role of trauma among women with histories of substance abuse, mental illness, and homelessness; an ecological approach to services for women survivors of psychological trauma and comorbid substance use disorders; women, substance abuse, and post-traumatic stress disorders; treatment models, program factors, and potential mediators in addressing trauma among women with serious addictive disorders; addictions in women in the American continent; opioid dependence in pregnant women; body weight and shape concerns as barriers to recovery from substance use disorders; comparison of women and men in a contemporary residential treatment setting; and the interpersonal foundation of women's substance use. Although the authors are all from reputable institutions, the editor's credentials are not given and no selection criteria beyond the general theme of women and addiction are provided.
