The book brings together the most up-to-date knowledge and expertise covering the whole topic of alcohol. It presents the practical skills needed to offer ethical intervention and treatment and implement ethical person-centered care.

The focus is on combining the principles and philosophy of alcohol prevention and intervention, in hospital and community. Each chapter provides self-assessment exercises, reflective practice exercises, key points and a "to learn more" section, and develops a theoretical framework, before broadening to include application in care and practice.
