Description: Alcohol use is complex and multifaceted. Our understanding must be also. Alcohol use both problematic and not can be understood at many levels from basic biological systems through to global public health interventions. To provide the multi - level perspective needed to address this complexity the Handbook of Alcohol Use draws together an eclectic set of authors including both researchers and practitioners to examine the causes processes and effects of alcohol consumption. Specifically this book approaches the topic from biological individual cognition small group/systems and domestic/global population perspectives. Each examines alcohol use differently and each offers its own ways to combat problematic behavior. While these alternative viewpoints are sometimes construed as incompatible or antagonistic the current volume also explores how they can be complimentary. In summary the Handbook of Alcohol Use brings together an international group of experts to explore how alcohol use can be understood from various perspectives and how these conceptualizations relate. In doing so it allows us to understand alcohol consumption and our responses to it more from an account which spans from synapse to society .
