Feedback on NCETA Resource

We are delighted to recently receive feedback on our Opioid Agonist Therapy (OAT) in Australia book - that documents the contribution that OAT has made to public health and life of individuals in Australia. "I'd like to express my thanks for the incredibly thorough and useful history of OAT prescribing. This history has been extremely helpful in giving me a foundation of understanding. I really appreciated reading about the social, cultural, and economic dynamics that influence how policy and practice construct the prescribers, consumers, and drugs in question." You can find this resource here.
