    Summary: The book illuminates the complex problems in genetic studies of substance use and addiction. It provides a comprehensive overview that fills the gap in the literature and points out future directions. The book includes three sections that apply to any complex traits and disorders, particularly psychological and psychiatric. The first section covers the traits and phenotypes that are the target of genetic research in substance use and addiction. Following this, the second section analyzes the methods and results of biometric genetic studies in this area. The third section reviews research in gene mapping and epigenetics. Genetics of Substance Use is a first-of-its-kind monograph that presents contemporary solutions and methods for a wide range of researchers and practitioners across disciplines.

    Childhood enuresis has long been an enigmatic clinical entity. The purpose of this paper is to focus current psychologic thinking as it applies to etiology, diagnostic work-up, treatment, and follow-up. A large number of etiologic formulations are briefly mentioned, but our primary thrust is to emphasize the psychologic liabilities of urologic instrumentation and to encourage the early application of nonsurgical therapeutic approaches consisting of behavior modification and imipramine. Follow-up evaluation is suggested for children requiring diagnostic or therapeutic genitourinary instrumentation.
