This text focuses exclusively on the still largely hidden problem of alcohol abuse by women. It attempts to reveal the many reasons why women drink and why treatments designed for men don't work for women. Combining solid clinical research with personal interviews, Sandmaier offers a revealing study of the profound effect that the social stigma placed upon women drinkers has had on their experiences with men, marriage, sex, children and careers. Sandmaier concludes with an woman's guide, offering specific advice on how and where women can find help.
