Alcohol consumption has increased by over 60 per cent since 1960, while during the same period there has been a significant fall in the use of tobacco. How can these opposite trends be explained? How can the ill-health consequences of these legal addictive substances be reduced? What are the gains and costs to industry and the economy? These questions are addressed in a variety of ways from different perspectives: social, political, historical, medical and economic.
