Most of these were concerned with alcohol and written by social anthropologists. This book presents multidisciplinary aspects of the ingestion of liquids at large, addressing many of the overt and covert meanings of drinking: from satisfying biological needs to communicating with humans and the hereafter, attempting to reach a differential emotional state or seeking good health and longevity through the ingestion of appropriate beverages. It includes papers from both biological and social scientists and covers a fair range of societies from rural and urban environments, and in continents and countries ranging from Europe, Africa, and Latin America to Malaysia and the Pacific.Anthropology of Food & NutritionDrinking behaviorCongressesEthnologyCongressesCeremonial behaviorCongressesDrinking of alcoholic beveragesAustraliaDrinking of alcoholic beveragesAfricaDrinking of alcoholic beveragesCameroonDrinking of alcoholic beveragesEurope, WesternDrinking of alcoholic beveragesMexicoDrinking of alcoholic beveragesKenyaDrinking of alcoholic beveragesCaribbean AreaDrinking of alcoholic beveragesRéunionDrinking of alcoholic beveragesMalaysiaDrinking of alcoholic beveragesPacific areaDrinking behaviorEthnologyCeremonial behaviorDrinking of alcoholic beveragesDrinking of alcoholic beveragesDrinking of alcoholic beveragesDrinking of alcoholic beveragesDrinking of alcoholic beveragesDrinking of alcoholic beveragesDrinking of alcoholic beveragesDrinking of alcoholic beveragesDrinking of alcoholic beveragesDrinking of alcoholic beverages394.13Garine Igor de483764Garine Valerie de1553717AU-PeELAU-PeELAU-PeELBOOK9910797355003321Drinking3814453UNINA
