Description Authors

The recreational use of gases and vapors dates from the end of the eighteenth century and may be seen as a concomitant of the scientific advances that preceded the industrial revolution. In this century, solvent abuse has often occurred in epidemic rashes in many countries, and the range of readily available products has been wide: in addition to gasoline, thinners and the various solvent-based glues, the list includes paints, lacquers, varnishes, aerosol products, dry-cleaning and degreasing agents, nail varnish, as well as typewriter correction fluids and butane gas. This book is a meticulous inquiry into the phenomenon of solvent abuse and its neuropsychological consequences.
Das "Schnüffeln" von Lösungsmitteln ist eine verbreitete Sucht. Sie wird in diesem Buch detailliert untersucht, und die neuropsychologischen Auswirkungen auf den süchtigen Menschen werden beschrieben.
