- An increasing wealth of experimental detail is available about the development and nature of addiction. Critical issues such as the varying vulnerabilities of different subjects are being illuminated at many levels of psychological and neurobiological detail. Furthermore, a rich theoretical understanding is starting to evolve in the field of neural reinforcement learning. In this chapter, we consider some of the currently most pressing issues in the interface between experiment and theory, notably the so-called "compulsive" phase of drug taking.
