Dr. DiClemente is a recipient of awards including the Lifetime Achievement Award from the Addictive Behaviors Special Interest Group of the Association for Behavioral and Cognitive Therapies, the John P.

"This masterful book provides an overall framework for
understanding how people take up addictions and how they move away
from them. The second edition organizes a wealth of recent research
about prevention, treatments, and biological and social influences.
It puts knowledge about every aspect of psychosocial treatments for
addictions at the reader's fingertips, and includes interesting,
relevant case studies. DiClemente is an excellent writer with a
relaxed and engaging style and a passion for his subject. This is
an invaluable resource for college courses on addictions--I can't
wait to use it in my classes."--Theresa B. Moyers, PhD, Department
of Psychology, University of New Mexico
"Addiction and Change, Second Edition, incorporates the
considerable body of addiction-related research that has
accumulated over the last dozen years. DiClemente presents an
important integration of many areas of research and advocates a
personalized approach to treatment planning. He emphasizes that
achieving and maintaining change is a process, not a product. This
book will expand therapists’ toolboxes while serving as a guide for
case conceptualization. Well done!"--Linda C. Sobell, PhD, ABPP,
President's Distinguished Professor, and Mark B. Sobell, PhD, ABPP,
President's Distinguished Professor, College of Psychology, Nova
Southeastern University
"The updated second edition attests to the major, expanding
influence of the TTM on our understanding and treatment of
addictive behavior. Decades of research inspired by the TTM are
well reflected here; the book is also replete with references to
other approaches and is sprinkled with clinical case examples that
illustrate and amplify. Especially highlighted is the broader
context of cultural and social factors that affect the processes of
change. The author's personal anecdotes and self-reflection add a
relevant personal touch to the book, which could easily serve as a
text for the large swath of disciplines aiding those on their
journey through change."--Peter M. Monti, PhD, Donald G. Millar
Distinguished Professor of Alcohol and Addiction Studies and
Director, Center for Alcohol and Addiction Studies, Brown
University
"I thoroughly enjoy DiClemente's ability to take complex concepts
and translate them into language that therapists and counselors can
understand and utilize with their patients. More than most
textbooks I use with graduate students, this one gives depth and
texture to the idea of 'meeting clients where they are at.'
Students and therapists consistently feel that the book helps them
individualize treatment strategies and interventions more than any
other source. I will definitely assign the second edition in my
courses."--Kevin C. Gilliland, PsyD, Adjunct Faculty, Department of
Dispute Resolution and Counseling, Southern Methodist University;
Executive Director, Innovation 360 Dallas -This updated and revised
new edition has many advantages….Addiction and Change continues to
be an invaluable resource for new students looking for foundational
instruction and for seasoned professionals seeking information on
recent advances in the field. Highly recommended. Students,
researchers, and practitioners.--Choice Reviews, 11/1/2018
