The brain is composed of neurons that pass electrical and chemical signals across the brain's synapses. Neurons come in different shapes and sizes which enables them to communicate in a variety of functions; when the neurons fire in a series from one area of the brain to another it creates a pathway. In the middle of the brain is the reward pathway which includes the ventral tegmental area (VTA), the nucleus accumbens, and the prefrontal cortex.

Since that time, science has changed the way people with addictions are treated and thought of. Science has also provided a means to understand and effectively address alcohol and other addictions. Addiction is a disease that affects the brain and behavior.
