Social Alcohol: Is It Really A Good Drug? (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781978441866)

Why do Americans concentrate so much time, money and political capital on reducing addictions such as opioid addiction that kills approximately 33,000 people per year while almost completely ignoring the 88,000-plus people dying each year from alcohol related causes?

Dr. Sherrod's questions, sometime humorous and sometimes "right between the eyes," are sprinkled among facts from scientists, government agencies and medical authorities. He asks why we keep doing what we do. He explores possible answers, often unpopular. He goes further as he explains the scientifically proven links between alcohol and cancer, documenting the source of every fact and every quote.

This book is designed to be read by everyone from preteen to 90 plus.
