Synopsis

""Studies in the Psychology of Intemperance"" is a book written by George Everett Partridge and published in 1912. The book explores the psychological aspects of intemperance, which is defined as excessive or habitual consumption of alcohol or other substances. The author examines the causes and effects of intemperance, as well as its impact on society and individuals. Partridge delves into the psychological factors that contribute to intemperance, including genetics, upbringing, and social influences. He also discusses the physiological effects of alcohol and other substances on the brain and body, and how these effects can lead to addiction and other harmful behaviors. The book is based on research conducted by the author, as well as on existing literature on the subject. It includes case studies and examples to illustrate the various aspects of intemperance, and the author provides recommendations for prevention and treatment. Overall, ""Studies in the Psychology of Intemperance"" is a comprehensive examination of a complex and important issue, and remains relevant today as society continues to grapple with the consequences of substance abuse.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.

A propos du livre

Présentation de l'éditeur

Anyone who considers the problem of intemperance must admit that before we can intelligently cope with the practical questions of control, we must first understand better the human nature that is involved. Whether or not the reader will agree with me that, since the causes of drinking are largely social, the cure and control must also be social, he must admit, I should think, that the point of view here taken in collecting evidence upon the alcohol problem is sound, and that to be prepared to form practical conclusions about temperance and intemperance one must understand the psychological questions involved. That these are both deep and interesting, I hope I may convince the reader. The work here reported is a continuation of an investigation made some years ago, a part of which was reported upon in the American Journal of Psychology, Vol.

Présentation de l'éditeur

This book was originally published prior to 1923, and represents a reproduction of an important historical work, maintaining the same format as the original work. While some publishers have opted to apply OCR (optical character recognition) technology to the process, we believe this leads to sub-optimal results (frequent typographical errors, strange characters and confusing formatting) and does not adequately preserve the historical character of the original artifact. We believe this work is culturally important in its original archival form. While we strive to adequately clean and digitally enhance the original work, there are occasionally instances where imperfections such as blurred or missing pages, poor pictures or errant marks may have been introduced due to either the quality of the original work or the scanning process itself. Despite these occasional imperfections, we have brought it back into print as part of our ongoing global book preservation commitment, providing customers with access to the best possible historical reprints. We appreciate your understanding of these occasional imperfections, and sincerely hope you enjoy seeing the book in a format as close as possible to that intended by the original publisher.
