Description
Drink: The Intimate Relationship Between Women and Alcohol explores the growing epidemic of risky drinking among women and girls in society today.
The author, Ann Dowsett Johnston, combines her own personal story of recovery with in-depth research to examine the psychological, social, and industry factors that have contributed to this rise. She sheds light on the alarming trends such as binge drinking, "drunkorexia" and health problems connected to drinking.
Johnston's book also delves into how corporations are targeting women with marketing strategies and products, exacerbating the problem. With its moving story and expert analysis, Drink offers a compelling look at this startling epidemic and its impact on our society and individual lives.
