"The Anatomy of Drunkenness" by Robert Macnish is a scientific publication written in the early 19th century. This work explores various aspects of drunkenness, including its historical context, causes, and effects on both the body and mind. It addresses how drunkenness has influenced societies over time and examines different substances that induce intoxication, as well as their varying impacts. At the start of the book, Macnish introduces the enduring nature of drunkenness throughout history, citing examples from antiquity and observing its prevalence in different cultures. He argues that drunkenness is not merely a modern vice but has roots in ancient societies, showing how it has both evolved and varied with time and climate. The opening chapters outline preliminary observations, the causes of drunkenness, and the effects it has, suggesting that different temperaments influence one's response to alcohol and detailing the physical and psychological phenomena that accompany intoxication.
