Addiction Science explores the intricate world of addiction, framing it as a brain disease that fundamentally alters neural pathways. It examines how drugs of abuse hijack the brain's reward system, leading to compulsive behaviors. Did you know that addiction can cause significant cognitive impairments, affecting decision-making and impulse control? The book traces the evolution of addiction research, highlighting the shift from sociological perspectives to modern neuroimaging and genetic studies, emphasizing the chronic, relapsing nature of addiction. 

 
The book provides a comprehensive look at the neurobiology of addiction, diving into neurotransmission, reward pathways, and crucial brain regions. It progresses logically, starting with fundamental concepts and moving through neurobiological underpinnings, cognitive consequences, treatment modalities such as pharmacological interventions, and relapse prevention strategies.

    In 2018, I suffered a massive cerebral stroke at the age of 24 after cracking my neck. I woke up in a hospital with little knowledge of myself, the world, or any grounding in reality because of the damage to my brain along with left-sided paralysis. I am not the person I was before and though I want to be them again I can't and must bury them, grieve, and start over. This is how I came to terms with my new existence while letting go of my past, not because I want to but because it is a requirement to move forward.
