Dying to Drink

Underage drinking & binge drinking are not harmless rites of passage. Rather than serving as some kind of bridge to adulthood, these illicit activities exact a senseless & severe price in blood & brain cells each semester. The proof is in the firsthand student accounts of out-of-control house parties & bar blasts, the testimonies of concerned health care professionals, & the tragic news stories related in this landmark book. The good news is that the damage, injuries, & deaths attributed to binge drinking are avoidable. The solutions offered here will help schools to improve the quality of campus life, parents to ensure the safety of their sons & daughters, & our young people to get the most out of their college years -- without the beer goggles on.Wechsler, Henry is the author of 'Dying to Drink', published 2006 under ISBN 9781422355596 and ISBN 1422355594.
