Edited by Dr. Charles Yesalis, a recognized authority with 20 years experience in the field of drug abuse, Anabolic Steroids in Sport and Exercise, second edition, is the most comprehensive reference text available today, offering the following features: Up-to-date clinical research and reference material concerning the use and abuse of steroids among professional, Olympic-level, college, and high school athletes Expanded data on the health effects, with particular emphasis on women's issues related to steroid abuse New information concerning steroid use among U.S. and foreign collegians, adolescents, and bodybuilders The latest information concerning the legal aspects of steroid usage in sports and exercise Important information on drug testing including a history of the politics surrounding the practice and up-to-date scientific findings This revised and expanded second edition of Anabolic Steroids in Sport and Exercise incorporates the latest research, experience and insights of 15 experts on the scientific, clinical, historical, legal, and other aspects of steroid abuse and drug testing. It provides a historical perspective on their use and abuse in exercise and sport, their physical and psychological effects, and issues relating to dependency, testing, intervention, withdrawal, treatment programs, and the legal ramifications of steroid use and abuse.
