###BOLD#TEXT[Praise for the book]###

###ITALIC#TEXT[“This is a must-read for educators, health care providers, community organizations, and the clinicians who work with these stakeholders as we all navigate the changing landscape of nicotine use in youth. The material is accessible and relevant for a broad audience, all the while maintaining the rigor of a scholarly publication. It is unique in emphasizing the challenges and opportunities for monitoring, preventing, and treating adolescent vaping, which is an entirely different ball game than cigarette smoking of past. Readers will be convinced of the importance of adopting a holistic framework that integrates and synergizes risk and protective factors across biological, psychological, and social domains which serve as drivers of both addiction and cessation outcomes. The book culminates with a scoping review of current vaping intervention programs accompanied by an incredible array of assessment tools, resources, and toolkits to meet the needs of caretakers and families, educators, healthcare providers, and the adolescents themselves.”]### ###LINEBREAK###Kristina Jackson, PhD, Professor, Department of Psychiatry, Rutgers Robert Wood Johnson Medical School; Associate Director of Epidemiology, Etiology, and Prevention Rutgers Addiction Research Center (RARC)

###ITALIC#TEXT[“Vape products are becoming increasingly potent and addictive, and concerningly we have seen a huge increase in young people using these products without understanding what the long-term impacts will be. This book by Drs. Sutherland and Trucco is a must-read for clinicians, researchers, educators, policymakers, and parents seeking clear, evidence-based information about vaping, including diagnoses, prevention, and treatment strategies.
