Product Description
Alcohol is a killer - 1 of every 13 deaths in the United States is alcohol-related. In addition, 5 per cent of the population consumes 50 per cent of the alcohol. The authors take a close look at the problem in a "classy little study," as "The Washington Post" called this book. "The Library Journal" states, "...[T]his is one book that addresses solutions...And it's enjoyably readable...This is an excellent review for anyone in the alcoholism prevention business, and good background reading for the interested layperson." "The Washington Post" agrees: the book "...likely will wind up on the bookshelves of counselors, politicians, judges, medical professionals, and law enforcement officials throughout the country."
