Biochemical level, alcohol and other drugs of abuse can impair metabolic and neuropsychiatric functions. Epidemiological studies also demonstrate that even moderate drinking or drug abuse can produce significant brain damage. First published in 1980, this book draws together biochemical, physiological and clinical research on these topics.
