Our guest this evening is Gene Heyman Ph. D., author of Addiction: a Disorder of Choice and lecturer at Boston College. Dr. Heyman's research focuses on in the determinants of drug use; he will be discussing the roles of the global reward maximizing process and the simpler, myopic local reward maximizing principle in determining whether people continue to use drugs or choose to abstain.
