Description

Explore the historical roots of alcohol dependence with this scholarly work from the Psychology Revivals series. Published by Routledge, this text provides a deep look into how the medical and social understanding of drunkenness evolved during the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries. As chronic alcohol dependence became a significant issue in modern society, this book captures the era when social reformers, politicians, and medical practitioners began to address its impact on the human body. Written in 1804, Trotter's Essay serves as a foundational text that predicted the eventual naming of alcoholism as a disease of habitual drunkenness by the mid-nineteenth century. Through detailed case studies built on wide experience, the author examines the medical, philosophical, and chemical aspects of alcohol consumption. This book is an essential resource for those studying the history of psychiatry, clinical psychology, and the social evolution of addiction studies.
