Note: The authors have worked to ensure that all information in this book is accurate at the time of publication and consistent with general psychiatric and medical standards, and that information concerning drug dosages, schedules, and routes of administration is accurate at the time of publication and consistent with standards set by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration and the general medical community. As medical research and practice continue to advance, however, therapeutic standards may change. Moreover, specific situations may require a specific therapeutic response not included in this book. For these reasons and because human and mechanical errors sometimes occur, we recommend that readers follow the advice of physicians directly involved in their care or the care of a member of their family.

In Memoriam: Herbert D. Kleber, M.D.
We are dedicating this Sixth Edition Textbook to the memory of Dr. Herbert D. Kleber, who passed away on October 5, 2018. From 1994 on, Dr. Kleber coedited the first five editions of this Textbook, embodying in it his command of the research base and the clinical practice of addiction medicine, which he had achieved over five decades of leadership in the field. His particular contribution was his support of empirical research to drive substance use disorder treatment. He thereby firmly established the credibility of this research in the discipline of medical practice overall, as well as its central role in the countrys approach to combating this leading public health problem.
Dr. Kleber began his career in addiction medicine while serving in the U.S. Public Health Services first narcotic treatment center, in Lexington, Kentucky. He drew on his experience there to establish the drug dependence program at Yale University, where he framed the concept of an academic center focused on substance use disorders that combined research, education, and progressive clinical care. He thereby created a setting for training a generation of academic leaders who now serve across the country and worldwide.
Among his many accomplishments, Dr. Kleber was a pioneering influence in developing new solutions to the practical problems of substance use disorder treatment in the New Haven community. Given these achievements and his academic leadership, he was asked to serve as Deputy Director for Demand Reduction at the White House Office of National Drug Control Policy, where he had an important impact on improving treatment for one of the countrys most highly compromised populations.
Dr. Kleber later went on to take the lead in establishing the Substance Abuse Division (now the Division on Substance Use Disorders) at Columbia University, where he wedded a major academic setting to a policy institute. There, he framed innovative approaches to understanding and treating the diversity of substance use disorders, from alcohol to opiates, psychostimulants, and marijuana. For all of these contributions, among his many honors, he was elected to the Institute of Medicine (now called the National Academy of Medicine). He will be sorely missed by many as a major leader and mentor in the addiction field.
