Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This 19th-century text analyzes the alcohol-related public health crisis through a systematic review of data from Switzerland, Germany, and America. The author posits that in order to reduce the harmful effects of alcohol consumption, the most effective method involves encouraging the consumption of less potent alcoholic drinks such as beer over hard spirits including whiskey. The author argues that by making these less harmful alcoholic drinks more widely available, the ill effects of alcohol consumption, including death by alcoholism, were shown to decrease while revenue streams from taxation on alcohol remained stable. Historically, this text positions itself as part of a broader 19th-century temperance movement seeking to mitigate the societal ills wrought by alcohol abuse without resorting to prohibition. However, the ideas presented in this book will resonate with modern readers as the debate over the most effective public health approaches to alcohol consumption continues to this day. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item. N° de réf. du vendeur 9781331923213_0
