Are there more than "theories" to rebound effect regarding withdrawl 
of substances to habituated subjects? How much research is there on 
the biochemical changes occurring during rebound from substances such 
as propanolol,ethanol,opiates,etc..?  Are there documented biochemical 
"changes" in habituated vs. non-habituated subjects?
