Description

Alcoholism is a disorder of enormous scope and destructive power that affects a third of all American families. Yet, despite extensive research, there are few uncontested answers to fundamental questions about this devastating disorder. Based on an evaluation of more than 600 individuals followed for over 40 years, George Vaillant's monumental study offers new and authoritative answers to all of these questions.
