Drink?: The New Science of Alcohol and Your Health

by David J. Nutt

“Drinking in parliament is rife. Many MPs have admitted to being affected and one has even described being too incapacitated by alcohol to be able to walk through the voting chambers. I have argued that to allow intoxicated MPs to make decisions on issues of national importance such as going to war is outrageous. In fact, I believe MPs should be breathalysed before being allowed to vote.” — Drink?: The New Science of Alcohol and Your Health by David Nutt
