This handbook was written under a grant from the National Institute on Alcohol Abuse and Alcoholism (NIAAA). We greatly appreciate the guidance, assistance, and patience of Laurie L. Foudin, Ph.D., SBIR Coordinator, NIAAA, in this most important project. We also want to thank Susan E. Martin, Ph.D. of the NIAAA for her helpful comments.
