This chapter sets out the major themes covered in the substantive chapters that follow. It provides a holistic account of the argument that links the chapters into a coherent, if multifaceted, intellectual position concerning the social nature and social explanation of addiction. The argument is fundamentally focused on briefly describing how later chapters serve to dissolve various antinomies that have long limited research not only in the social sciences of addiction but throughout the addiction sciences more generally.
