First published in 1991, Homelessness and Drinking conveys
multitude of information about a homeless drinking population in
Anchorage, Alaska. The data presented were obtained from day-to-day
observations of individuals using a Sleep-Off Center. Bernard Segal
discusses themes like descriptive analysis of clients using the
sleep-off centre; analysis of drinking and drug-taking behaviour
among homeless; intervention and treatment of the homeless
alcoholic; and assessment of treatment outcome, to showcase that
when people become homeless and attached to alcohol, it then
becomes extremely difficult to separate the drinker from alcohol.
This book is an essential read for students and scholars of
addiction studies, psychology, sociology, and behavioural studies.
