• Resumen

  • It is common knowledge that alcohol's effects depend not just on how much people drink, but what they drink, too. The scientific literature on the subject is surprisingly sparse. A review in 1996 of the existing research concluded that, for the same dose of alcohol, brandy impairs drinkers more than beer, and makes them more aggressive and emotional--although beer-drinkers tend to have more long-term alcohol-related problems, and are mice tanked up on red wine. Here, Austen distills the truth about alcohol.
