Alcohol Abuse
eBook
(Independence Educational Publishers Jan. 20, 2011)
So-called 'binge drinking' is a widespread problem often perceived to be particularly common amongst young people. But are this group the only culprits when it comes to dangerous drinking? Research shows that people of all ages are increasingly consuming large amounts of alcohol. This book covers the effects of alcohol on short- and long-term health, as well as the social issues associated with alcohol abuse. The information comes from a variety of sources, including government reports and statistics, newspapers and magazine articles, surveys and polls, academic research and literature from charities and lobby groups; articles have been tailored to an 11 to 14 age group. Additionally, at the end of each chapter are two pages of activities relating to the articles and issues raised in that chapter.
