The three main themes of this book are that "patterns of drinking" are the best way to understand alcohol's place in society, that "targeted interventions" are the most sensitive to cultural differences, and that "partnerships" offer the best opportunity to develop new policies that reflect the values of society as a whole. The book's central chapters address the issues of preventing or reducing problems related to the consumption of alcohol and driving, the role of drinking alcohol in the genesis of social disorder, and problems related to alcohol drinking by young people.
