Maternal substance use: epidemiology, treatment outcome, and developmental effects: an annotated bibliography, 1995.

Understanding the effects of substance misuse by pregnant women and mothers of young children requires a knowledge of the epidemiology of women's drug and alcohol use and misuse, the treatment of pregnant and postpartum chemically dependent women, the impact of prenatal exposure on the offspring outcome and later development, and, finally, methodological issues related to these fields. This bibliography provides a list of recent and classic articles in these areas as well as information about the research in these areas.
