Contributions to the understanding of drug addiction and alcoholism are summarized, for the most part in chronological order. Beginning with
Freud's first suggestions in 1905, certain aspects of the problem were discussed by various authors. Since Rado's paper in 1926, there have been more systematic attempts to deal with the problem of addiction in its own right. Modifications of psycho-analytic methods for its treatment have also been suggested by several authors in recent years. A comprehensive bibliography is appended.
