Louise Foxcroft
A social and intellectual history of the concept of addiction, concentrating on the use and abuse of opiates. The book looks at public and personal perceptions of chronic opiate use in the nineteenth century and at the development of addiction as a medical condition, a disease entity, where no such definition had previously existed.
