A brisk, urgent call to question what we accept as medicine-and what we accept as policy. This powerful historical medical essay turns the lens on alcohol, arguing that its dangers and social reach exceed medical rites, and that public health is inseparable from public debate. Alcohol: A Dangerous And Unnecessary Medicine, How And Why; What Medical Writers Say gathers the classic temperance literature into a single, compelling voice. Its pages carry a clear, accessible argument: that alcohol can be an unnecessary medicine, and that reformer voices from the Progressive Era in early twentieth century America deserve renewed attention. Readers will recognise the texture of medical writers' testimony, the cadence of public health critique, and the urgency of a movement that linked science, policy, and daily life. The book blends scholarship with narrative clarity, offering value for health professionals, researchers and students, and general readers drawn to historical medical essays and policy history. A note on significance: restored for today's and future generations, this edition transcends a mere reprint. It is a collector's item and a cultural treasure, inviting casual readers and classic-literature collectors alike to re-explore a pivotal moment in public policy and reform. For those tracing the roots of public health thought, this is essential reading, a respectful tribute to a reform polemic that helped shape American discourse.
