Conclusion. 330 $aThis title discusses the phenomenon of alcohol abuse as a behavioural disease and the associated costs. The author details alcohol?s status as a psychoactive drug; he notes, however, that in contrast to other psychoactive drugs, alcohol has been widely culturally accepted in Western countries and legally available, except in isolated incidents for a short period of time. Joshua considers which policies are being correctly utilised so as to reduce the abuse of alcohol, and how these policies may operate on a supply and demand model. Whereas programs of prevention and treatment operate on the demand side of alcohol abuse, legislation is directed at the supply side of alcohol; that is, dealing with marketing ? product, promotion, point of sales and price. This is the second title in a four volume series ?The Economics of Addictive Behaviours?, consisting of three additional volumes on alcohol abuse, illicit drug abuse and overeating. 410 0$aPalgrave pivot. 606 $aHealth economics 606 $aWelfare economics 606 $aSocial policy 606 $aHealth psychology 606 $aHealth promotion 606 $aPolitical economy 606 $aHealth Economics$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/W35000 606 $aSocial Choice/Welfare Economics/Public Choice/Political Economy$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/W31020 606 $aSocial Policy$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/W34020 606 $aHealth Psychology$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/Y12020 606 $aHealth Promotion and Disease Prevention$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/H27010 606 $aInternational Political Economy$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/912140 615 0$aHealth economics. 615 0$aWelfare economics. 615 0$aSocial policy. 615 0$aHealth psychology. 615 0$aHealth promotion. 615 0$aPolitical economy. 615 14$aHealth Economics. 615 24$aSocial Choice/Welfare Economics/Public Choice/Political Economy. 615 24$aSocial Policy. 615 24$aHealth Psychology. 615 24$aHealth Promotion and Disease Prevention. 615 24$aInternational Political Economy. 676 $a338.473621 700 $aJoshua$b John$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut$0894176 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910255025603321 996 $aThe Economics of Addictive Behaviours Volume II$92263603 997 $aUNINA
