'A welcome addition to the sparse literature on alcohol and young
children. It should help to focus more attention on how children
learn about alcohol and how attitudes developed when young relate
to drinking patterns in adulthood.'- Journal of Biosocial
Science
'Within its text are elegantly written critiques and reviews of
health education strategies, substance misuse theories and research
methodologies. On these issues it provides a rich source of
information and those who are interested in such topics,
particularly as they relate to children, would be well-advised to
seek out this work.' - Journal of Psychiatric and Mental Health
