Author Description

While hundreds of books exist on the dangers of drinking, Dr. Jung goes further -- he provides an in-depth examination of the behavior and habits of alcoholics as well as 'social drinkers' in America. This scientifically-based book doesn't require advanced technical knowledge to understand, yet it provides a basic understanding of the causes and effects of alcohol consumption. Jung's integrated overview includes the history of American attitudes toward alcohol and its use, the nature of current drinking practices in the United States, and an examination of the physiological and psychological effects of alcohol consumption.
