Alcohol, Drinking, Drunkenness

Designed as a reference text, this book represents the first systematic overview of geographies of alcohol, drinking and drunkenness. Each chapter blends conceptual material with empirical case studies to analyse drinking in public and private, urban and rural drinking patterns and practices, gender, life course, and emotional and embodied geographies.
