Good Times, Bad Times


Book Description




Good Times/bad Times


Book Description

Good Times/Bad Times is the story of an eighteen-year-old boy groping to find himself, battling to protect a profound friendship, and manfully enduring torment--until her can endure it no longer. Peter Kilburn, son of a down-on-his-luck Hollywood actor, has been sent East to take his senior year at Gilford, a once fashionable but now decidedly second-rate New England prep school. Lonely among a pack of alien schoolboys, but proud, defiant and totally sympathetic, Peter vows to prove his worth to Gilford's forbidding headmaster, who compulsively seeks to restore to the school the honor that was so badly tarnished by scandal only a few years earlier. In Jordan Legier, a frail but charismatic young man wise beyond his years, Peter finds a warm friend. Witty, knowing and generous, Jordan shares with Peter a series of unforgettable good times, on and off the campus. But the good times are only prelude to a chain of increasingly menacing, and finally tragic, confrontations with their iron-willed headmaster, who sees in the boys' relationship a perversion that in fact lingers elsewhere on the Gilford campus--dust jacket cover.

Addressing Unhealthy Alcohol Use in Primary Care


Book Description

While there is a wealth of published information on addiction medicine, the psychological aspects of alcohol abuse, and behavioral medicine with regard to addiction, virtually none of these resources were written with the primary care provider in mind. Addressing Unhealthy Alcohol Use in Primary Care is a resource for primary care clinicians who are confronted by patients with these problems daily, and who wish to successfully address these issues in their practice. It would focus on the literature and science relevant to primary care practice and cover the range of interventions appropriate for this setting. Topics include assessment, brief counseling interventions, pharmacotherapy, referrals to both specialty care and Alcoholics Anonymous (and other self-help programs), psychiatric co-morbidity and other drug use, and other information specific to the needs of the primary care provider.
