"Women under the Influence" asks pertinent and important questions
about the patterns and problems of women's drinking in Britain
today. Revealing just how much women are "under the influence", it
contains interviews with many women who describe how alcohol
affects all aspects of their lives - relationships, work,
family-life, self-esteem and sense of identity. The author
discusses the social pressure to drink; shows how we are bombarded
with contradictory do's and don'ts about alcohol; and in writing
about the institutions, largely government and brewery funded, that
are responsible for public awareness about alcohol, she asks in
whose interest it is that women drink more - or less.;In this fully
revised and updated edition, Brigid McConville also examines the
physical consequences of drinking and offers suggestions to those
who do drink and want to stop. She describes the treatments
available through women's self-help groups, through the medical
profession, and through organizations such as Alcoholics Anonymous.
