Editorial Reviews
Review
"A welcome addition to the growing field of literature which addresses these issues....The book would be extremely valuable to any person interested in setting up experimental models of alcohol toxicity. This book provides an excellent up-to-date review of the neurotoxicity of alcohol...and would be a useful reference book for scientists and clinicians working in this field."--Brain
