Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Foundation of Death: A Study of the Drink-Question What can be Done And for many reasons Great Britain is almost exclusively considered in both these chapters, especially in the last. In each of the thirteen chapters I have tried to include only what belongs under its particular heading, and to the best of my ability, the contents of each chapter, and all the chapters in relation to each other, have been arranged and proportioned so as to bring the whole into good focus for the reader, at whatever point he may incline to take up the subject.

Download or read book Reducing Underage Drinking written by Institute of Medicine and published by National Academies Press. This book was released on 2004-03-26 with total page 761 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Alcohol use by young people is extremely dangerous - both to themselves and society at large. Underage alcohol use is associated with traffic fatalities, violence, unsafe sex, suicide, educational failure, and other problem behaviors that diminish the prospects of future success, as well as health risks â€" and the earlier teens start drinking, the greater the danger. Despite these serious concerns, the media continues to make drinking look attractive to youth, and it remains possible and even easy for teenagers to get access to alcohol. Why is this dangerous behavior so pervasive? What can be done to prevent it? What will work and who is responsible for making sure it happens? Reducing Underage Drinking addresses these questions and proposes a new way to combat underage alcohol use. It explores the ways in which may different individuals and groups contribute to the problem and how they can be enlisted to prevent it. Reducing Underage Drinking will serve as both a game plan and a call to arms for anyone with an investment in youth health and safety.

Download or read book The politics of alcohol written by James Nicholls and published by Manchester University Press. This book was released on 2013-07-19 with total page 429 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Questions about drink – how it is used, how it should be regulated and the social risks it presents – have been a source of sustained and heated dispute in recent years. In The politics of alcohol, newly available in paperback, Nicholls puts these concerns in historical context by providing a detailed and extensive survey of public debates on alcohol from the introduction of licensing in the mid-sixteenth century through to recent controversies over 24-hour licensing, binge drinking and the cheap sale of alcohol in supermarkets. In doing so, he shows that concerns over drinking have always been tied to broader questions about national identity, individual freedom and the relationship between government and the market. He argues that in order to properly understand the cultural status of alcohol we need to consider what attitudes to drinking tell us about the principles that underpin our modern, liberal society. The politics of alcohol presents a wide-ranging, accessible and critically illuminating guide to the social, political and cultural history of alcohol in England. Covering areas including law, public policy, medical thought, media representations and political philosophy, it will provide essential reading for anyone interested in either the history of alcohol consumption, alcohol policy or the complex social questions posed by drinking today.
Download or read book Shall We Drink Wine written by Jno Madden and published by Createspace Independent Publishing Platform. This book was released on 2015-11-03 with total page 226 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The book is ably written, and the author's conclusions in harmony with the most advanced and most thorough research on this pressing subject of the day, are against wine as a beverage. The verdict of science and of all properly estimated experience is against alcohol as a beverage, whatever temporary uses it may subserve in therapeutics. Weighed in the balance of critical examination it is proven a delusion and a snare as a drink or food and the verdict of Him of old who said, "Wine is a mocker and whosoever is deceived thereby is not wise," is after a lapse of decades of centuries, reaffirmed. The book will do much good. -The Alienist and Neurologist, Vol. 20 [1899] This is the dispassionate statement of a scientist as to one of the greatest questions of the day. When we consider that the alcohol business is founded on greed and appetite, it will not appear strange that the annual liquor bill of this country is over twelve hundred millions of dollars, and that intemperate ravings at this business will not cure it. Dr. Madden's book should be in the hands of all "reformers," temperate and intemperate-the former that they may add to their wisdom, and the latter that they may stop their folly and begin to appreciate the immensity of the problem that confronts American citizens. The thinking business man, the patriotic lawyer, the conscientious statesman, the self-sacrificing teacher, and the good physician, who lives most of all in the hearts of the people, cannot but be interested in the fact that the annual malted liquor bill is nearly $1,000,000,000, the greater portion of which comes out of the poor and improvident members of the Republic. Professor Madden treats his subject under the following divisions: Historical.-The Constituents of Alcoholic Beverages-The Food Value of Alcoholic Beverages-Alcohol as a Stimulant. -The Effects of Alcohol upon Digestion and Assimilation.-The General Pathology of Alcoholism.-Alcoholic Heart Diseases. -Alcoholic Irritation of Other Organs.- Effects of Alcohol upon Nerve Tissue.- The Influence of Alcohol upon Embryonic Tissue and Heredity.-Alcohol as a Factor in the Production of Insanity.-The Attitude of the Medical Profession toward A1cohol. -Who Become Drunkards, and Why? What Is Inebriety?-Intermittent or Periodic Inebriety.-Constant or Habitual Inebriety.-Popular Fallacies Regarding Alcoholic Beverages-Shall the Physician Cease to Prescribe Alcohol?-Effects of Alcohol upon Civilization, and What Is the Best Means of Combating the Alcohol Evil? Buy the book; read it, and keep it for reference. -The Dietetic and Hygienic Gazette, Vol. 16 [1900]

Download or read book Almost Alcoholic written by Joseph Nowinski and published by Simon and Schuster. This book was released on 2012-03-13 with total page 147 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Determine if your drinking is a problem, develop strategies for curbing your intake, and measure your progress with this practical, engaging guide to taking care of yourself. Every day, millions of people drink a beer or two while watching a game, shake a cocktail at a party with friends, or enjoy a glass of wine with a good meal. For more than 30 percent of these drinkers, alcohol has begun to have a negative impact on their everyday lives. Yet, only a small number are true alcoholics--people who have completely lost control over their drinking and who need alcohol to function. The great majority are what Dr. Doyle and Dr. Nowinski call "Almost Alcoholics," a growing number of people whose excessive drinking contributes to a variety of problems in their lives. In Almost Alcoholic, Dr. Doyle and Dr. Nowinski give the facts and guidance needed to address this often unrecognized and devastating condition. They provide the tools to: identify and assess your patterns of alcohol use; evaluate its impact on your relationships, work, and personal well-being; develop strategies and goals for changing the amount and frequency of alcohol use; measure the results of applying these strategies; and make informed decisions about your next steps.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Shall We Drink Wine?: A Physician's Study of the Alcohol Question As to the importance of the alcohol question, there can be only one opinion. How long can we continue to increase the per capita consumption of alcohol at the rate of seventy per cent. Every twenty years before it becomes evident to the slowest of comprehension that something must be done to save civilized races from annihilation? The writer believes, too, that it is the province of the physician more than the moralist, more than the philanthropist, and certainly as much as the statesman, to do what he may for the suppression of alcohol. This essay is, therefore, written certainly as much for the physician as for the intelligent layman. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
