Vendeur : Forgotten Books, London, Royaume-Uni
Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book delves into the social and mental perils encountered by the use of alcohol, and illustrates all the phases of those perils in narrative form. The author endeavors to illustrate how alcohol overcomes the restraining power of the mind, and subjects it entirely to the influence of environment. It also explores how the action of alcohol upon the brain and nerve centers, produces mania, in intensity as the volume of alcohol is increased. Most significantly, this book highlights how this mania is transmitted to posterity, and it develops in some a periodical desire for alcohol, which impels them to excesses and crimes. In others, it allows freedom of mind through youth to manhood, then leads them into the realms of insanity. The author's ultimate aim is to bring to light the responsibility of checking the ever -swelling streams that are pouring into the overflowing reservoirs of dementia, named Asylums for the Insane and to emphasize how all its patients are not in asylums. This book offers an insightful and thought-provoking exploration of a serious issue, offering valuable insights into its main subject.
