Two quick questions.
Does anyone know how I can get my hands on a copy of Bill White's _Slaying
the Dragon_ relatively quickly?  I ordered it last year from Chapters.ca (a
Canadian online bookseller) but it never arrived.  Now I find that the
status of it at Chapters and at Amazon is ... it's gonna take a while.
(Ironically, I went the internet route because it's generally faster)

Second (related) question: An undergraduate friend of mine is writing a
final term paper on addiction, and her supervisor asked her to get into
definitions of addiction (social and scientific)  I know that White's book
covers that, if the paper that he presented in Philadelphia in 1998 is any
indication.  I've dug up a few other relevant papers for my friend.  If
anyone has any suggestions for her, please let me know.

Thanks.
