"This is the first book to provide detailed, pragmatic guidelines for implementing contingency management (CM) with this population. CM is highly efficacious for treating substance use disorders and can be integrated with virtually any other form of therapy, including cognitive-behavioral and family interventions. Filled with worksheets and real-life examples, the book will help therapists apply CM within a comprehensive adolescent treatment program." - Nancy M. Petry, Professor of Medicine and Director, Contingency Management REWARD Center, University of Connecticut School of Medicine, USA "Contingency management is an evidence-based treatment that aims to ameliorate risk factors and constructively facilitate teens' efforts to lead drug-free lives. It is based on proven behavioral and cognitive-behavioral principles. This book is a godsend for practitioners seeking a comprehensive manual with step-by-step instructions for treating teens with substance use problems." - Michael Windle, Rollins Endowed Professor, Department of Behavioral Sciences and Health Education, Emory University, USA
