“Underage Drinking” is a factual book structured to inform. The purpose is solely to provide information on the epidemic of premature alcohol consumption. Each chapter starts with a brief yet clear heading of what's to come and the author of that chapter.
The introduction gives a brief background on alcoholism, specifically underage in America. The end of the book is equipped with organizations to contact, an alphabetical index, and photo credits.
This book entails so many statistics and ideas that are important to consider when discussing this topic. For example, “It is now commonly believed that the average young person will have seen 100,000 beer commercials between the ages of 2 and 18.” But when doing the math for that absurd statistic it was found that that puts America’s youth viewing an average of more than 17 commercials per day.
This book is incredibly organized and highly recommended for anyone looking to enlighten themself on this popular epidemic.
