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.

Book excerpt: This paper presents the results of a review of hundreds of hours of testimony before State legislatures, large amounts of editorial opinion and voluminous research reports in an effort to distill the most commonly heard arguments against the 21 year old drinking age. Many of these arguments are myths or misperceptions of fact. Some are outright fictions. Some are sincere concerns for rights and liberties that are no less valid simply because they compete with other, equally valid rights. All are views strongly held by many people, the vast majority of whom are honestly motivated by and interested in the freedom and well being of young Americans. Those who see the drinking age 21 as an essential step toward preserving that freedom and well being need to treat their opponents and their arguments with respect. Legitimate concerns and sincere questions deserve respectful, logical responses.
