Data, which were drawn from a variety of official international statistical reports and trade publications, are presented separately for beer, wine, and distilled spirits, with a concluding section on alcoholic beverages as a whole. Among the many observations that emerge, the book concludes that the association between trends in alcohol consumption and trends in alcohol-related problems is sufficiently strong to justify the view that alcohol production is an activity with inevitable implications for public health.Item type | Current library | Call number | Copy number | Status | Date due | Barcode |
