Rezensionen / Stimmen
'Vogel-Sprott's studies are meticulous and models of good science. Her historical perspective is scholarly....' - The American Journal of Psychiatry
'A unique and valuable contribution to the alcohol field, one that clearly bridges the gap between the research findings and their application to societal issues, and one that scientists, clinicians, social policymakers, and the lay public will find readable and thought provoking.' - Contemporary Psychology
'Alcohol Tolerance and Social Drinking is destined to be the classic work on tolerance in social drinkers. Professor Vogel's elegant research makes for fascinating reading. In my view, the book is a gold mine of new ideas and is a 'must' for anyone interested in human drinking behavior' - Alan Marlatt, PhD, University of Washington
