Alcohol and caffeine are by far the most widely consumed mind-altering drugs in the world today, so shouldn't we know a little more about the substances that give us that much-needed shot in the arm, or that take the edge of a rough day? In this endlessly entertaining and informative collection of coffee and booze trivia, history and anecdotes, award-winning scientist Stephen Braun explores such topics as the causes and cures of hangovers, the role of caffeine in creativity, how these substances find their way into our bloodstream, heart, and brain - and why so many people can't get through the day without one or both.
Review:
"An entertaining and informative discussion of both he scientific and cultural impact of caffeine and alcohol."
Kirkus, 06/01/1996
Review:"Whether they prefer scotch on the rocks or a double mocha latte, readers will enjoy Braun's dissection of caffeine, alcohol, and the processes by which they work."
