Drug & Alcohol Abuse

(4) YA Gallup Major Trends and Events series. From Prohibition to today's "war on drugs," the book outlines the history of alcohol and drug abuse in America, illustrating its information with data from Gallup polls. The writing is clear, but Marcovitz doesn't explore the limitations of poll data, and many of the points tend to be oversimplified. Charts, graphs, and photos (many stiffly staged) are included. Reading list, websites. Bib., glos., ind.
