Product Description

Product Description
This text examines the place of alcoholic drink in cultures around the world and seeks to examine the many social and moral issues surrounding it. It answers such questions as: what is alcohol and what happens to your body when you drink it?; what attracts young people to alcohol and why does prohibition so often fail?; and why do so many people abuse alcohol, and what are the results of such abuse? The book examines these issues, presenting the evidence and the arguments so that the reader can make up their own mind. This volume is part of a series which examines important and controversial issues facing the world today. The causes and effects of these subjects are investigated within a global context, while quotations from experts, public figures and people with personal experience of the subjects are featured throughout. In each title, facts, statistics and case studies are used to explore the topic.
