  Looking at alcohol consumption across cultures, this book examines what drinking means to the people who consume or refuse to consume. Drawing on fieldwork, it situates consumption within the context of wider cultural practices and reveals how class, ethnicity, and nationalism are all expressed through this very popular commodity.
