Description
Sir Victor Horsley and Dr. Mary D. Sturge’s 1907 text, Alcohol and The Human Body, presents a rigorous, scientific examination of alcohol’s physiological effects. Serving as a foundational work in the temperance movement, it systematically details alcohol’s impact on the nervous system, internal organs, and overall bodily efficiency. The authors synthesize contemporary research, offering clear, evidence-based arguments about the damaging consequences of consumption. The book was instrumental in shaping early public health policy and scientific understanding of addiction.
