Description
Alcoholism: the Facts deals with all the aspects of the world's number one drug problem. Primarily a book for those with alcohol problems and for those who share their lives, it is written in a clear, lively style, and discusses all the social, psychological, and medical aspects of alcohol problems. Since the first edition of this book an enormous amount of research has been conducted into alcholism, and Professor Goodwin explains straighforwardly what the results of this research mean, and how to go about getting help for yourself, or a relative or friend. This book is intended for people with drink problems, alcoholics, and their families; GPs.
