| Synopsis: |
John Duffy brings together recent work from a broad range of epidemiologists and statisticians and gives a state-of-the-art summary of current research and literature. This book traces the extent to which alcohol may be responsible for a range of health problems, including cerebro-vascular disease, liver and heart disease, reproductive damage, cancers and non-malignant gastro-intestinal conditions. It contains an introduction to epidemiological methods for newcomers to the technical aspects of the subject and includes public health considerations. This book should be of interest to postgraduate, research and professional readers involved in social medicine, epidemiology, public health, statistics and alcohol studies. It is part of the "Health and Society" series which aims to provide recent studies in the areas variously known as public health, epidemiology, community health and social medicine. |
