Book Synopsis

After more than a decade, the wait is finally over. The “alcohol Bible,” Wigmore on Alcohol, has been updated by the addition of more than 400 new studies on the medicolegal aspect of alcohol. New sections on alcohol addiction (AUD), withdrawal (AWS), fetal alcohol syndrome (FAS), and health effects have been added, as well as new appendices. Carefully selected historic quotes about alcohol in society — ranging from those by Abraham Lincoln to Albert Einstein and Homer Simpson — at the beginning of each chapter and section provide a more profound understanding of this drug.

Wigmore on Alcohol, Second Edition is an indispensable tool for medical and legal practitioners looking for an exhaustive survey of — and up-to-date scientific evidence related to — blood alcohol. Wigmore has developed the definitive sourcebook on courtroom alcohol toxicology for the medicolegal professional. The book abstracts over 1,200 articles from the periodical literature around the world and presents the information in a clear and systematic format that is easily accessible to both experts and lay persons.
