| Synopsis: |
Teenagers drinking until they collapse; middle class consumption reaching dangerous levels with record numbers of housewives facing alcohol-induced liver disease; a wrap of cocaine costing less than a trip to the cinema; and repeated links between cannabis use and mental health problems. Drinking hours have been extended and cannabis downgraded, while rehabilitation along celebrity lines is expensive and rare on the NHS."Pocket Issue" checks and asks if there is a quick fix? How is Britain handling societal drugs and alcohol usage? And how does this compare with abroad? Are we so different in our indulgence to the seemingly more civilised Europeans? "Pocket Issue" primes you on the big global issues in around 100 pages. Pithy and pocket sized, our titles brief you on the biggest challenges facing our world: climate change, oil shortages, food, obesity, conflict in the Middle East, terrorism, pandemics, privacy and human rights - delivering the facts in an accessible, easy-to-read style. |
