Buch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - BOOK REVIEW of The Tip of the Spear by David Vieth Kopenyby Bernard Glos, Ph.D., Licensed Clinical Psychologist with expertise in forensicpsychology, addiction and violence/threat assessment In my five decades of professional work, rarely have I come across a booklike this one. It is unbelievably well written. First, it is fact based, both interms of drugs and human behavior. It carefully integrates relevant stories ofyoung people and parents to make the factual content much more relatable.Importantly, it clearly illuminates the key role parents have in preventingor dealing with their children's substance use. The book not only identifieseverything a parent needs to know, it does so in such a clear and simpleway that both understanding and application are easy for the reader. Thereare clear strategies in how to prevent drug use but also clear interventionsto address such use if it is already occurring.

At theend, the author sees his work as a strategy for hope. So often, when youngpeople get involved with drugs or other addictive behaviors, parents throwup their hands in frustration and try to get the issue 'fixed' elsewhere. Ifyou read this book, you as a parent will know what to do. YOU are the fix.…
