Problem gambling is a perennial issue frequently reported in the media. It is estimated that almost 1% of the adult population in the UK has experienced some form of problem gambling, with similar figures for other developed countries. There are few books that offer an in-depth overview of the research into problem gambling. This volume fills this gap by bringing together international experts to provide a comprehensive and up-to-date resource that describes the state of the art of problem gambling research from the fundamental cognitive processes involved, to preventative methods and the most effective treatments for those for whom problem gambling is a reality.

Industry Reviews

"Problem Gambling is a valuable and interesting read. While academics and those with some background knowledge of psychology will have the greatest appreciation for this book, it would also be suitable for treatment providers or those who wish to gain an overview of some of the current issues surrounding problem gambling and current problem gambling research and legislation in the United Kingdom. ... a useful reference volume, with directions for further literature for each respective field." (Melanie Hartmann, International Gambling Studies, Vol. 15 (3), July, 2015)
