Description
This book, the proceedings of the twenty-fifth annual symposium of the Eugenics Society, looks into the complex alcohol and tobacco markets and how they are influenced by international factors such as EEC harmonization. There are discussions about the best preventive approach from a nationalist approach, which encompass the early identification of those in need of help, the modification of unhealthy attitudes and behaviour.
