Summary
Alcohol Explained is the definitive, ground-breaking guide to alcohol and alcoholism. It explains how alcohol affects human beings on a chemical, physiological, and psychological level, from those first drinks right up to chronic alcoholism. Alcoholism and problem drinking seems illogical to those on the outside; indeed, it is equally perplexing for the alcoholic or problem drinker. This audiobook provides a logical, easy-to-follow explanation of the phenomenon and detailed instructions on how to beat it. Despite being entirely scientific and factual in nature, the audiobook is presented in an accessible and easily understandable format.
For more information and to read the first five chapters for free, please visit www.alcoholexplained.com.
"This is an excellent book written by an inquisitive and educated author who during a period of his life suffered from alcoholism. The book explains in an easily understood language the various effects that alcohol has on our body. In my opinion the text would serve as a great handbook not only for those struggling with alcohol but also medical students as part of their education. I am sure some of my own patients troubled with alcoholism in recent years could have benefited from reading William’s book and I will be recommending it going forward." - Håvard Molvik, MD, MRCS, MSc, MRCGP

The First Stop if you considering quitting alcohol
As I said above this practical, well laid out and full picture view of alcohol should be your first stop if you are thinking you may need to get free from the booze but are not sure why or how.
Trust me. Read it.

Good
Good book that opened me up to a new way of thinking about alcohol. I listen to this as a distraction when I have thoughts of drinking. Definitely helping me stay sober.

Wonderful life changing book!
William Porter factually explains the effects of Alcohol so well. It can be a difficult listen at times - uncomfortable to hear the facts about our beloved alcohol but for me this book has been instrumental on my journey to remove alcohol from my life by seeing it for what it really is. Everyone should read this and then decide whether to continue drinking or not.

Good book - audio not great
Insightful, interesting book but sadlt quite irritating audio- certain words said much more loudly than others. I think there is an issue with the actual recording and it affected my ability to concentrate on what's actually being said.
