Rethinking Drinking


Book Description

Rethinking Drinking is a story about our common awareness about alcohol-both conscious and subconscious. It's also a story about the super-genius of alcohol marketing. Starting with the author's own experiences, it moves along sort of a dot-connecting continuum of increasingly honest awareness about the effect alcohol has on all of us, and finally arrives at the reason we're all under the influence of it. Lastly, the author shares how he explained it all to his teenage son. There are far too many alcohol messes that we can avoid with a little more awareness and conversation about its slick marketing and slippery effects. With illustrations, common quotes, and condensed chapters, this book is fun and easy for everyone to read and talk about.




Corporate Social Responsibility and Alcohol


Book Description

Increased scrutiny on the part of the general public, media, and government has warranted a reexamination of corporate responsibilities, standards of accountability, the company's role in its local and extended community, and its ethical position in our society and culture. Corporate Social Responsibility and Alcohol considers the basic values, ethics, policies and practices of a company's business. Particular attention will be paid to the alcohol beverage industry, and the many unique issues that are specific to this business, such as: responsible marketing, promotional, and advertising campaigns and strategies; the particular risks inherent in any alcoholic product; issues of abuse prevention & education; research; and legal and ethical aspects of alcohol. This will be the seventh volume in the ICAP Series on Alcohol in Society.
