Enhanced descriptions from Syndetics:
An examination of why particular alcohol and drug treatment methods work for some people but not for others. An independent evaluation of an Alcohol Treatment Centre based on the disease model (AA and Minnesota), indicates that individual differences are an important variable in treatment outcome and particularly differences in personal beliefs.
