Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book sets out to explore the connection between intemperance and the laws of individual and national wealth. It explains that physical strength is a key agent in the production of wealth and that intemperance can diminish the health and bodily energy of a population, which in turn can slow the growth of wealth. The author highlights that intemperance also sets in motion the functions of the body, forcing them into a rapid and furious career, which rapidly leads to debility and disease. This book also argues that intemperance destroys the intellect, robs a man of his self-respect, and brutalizes his taste, extinguishing within him all love for the conveniences and elegances of wealth. The author concludes with a startling estimate of the economic cost of intemperance in the United States, demonstrating that the waste it causes far exceeds the price of the drink itself.
