Summary:"This report is a presentation of experimental evidence which has been accumulating for several years on certain phases of the alcohol problem. The data offered relate to the influence of alcohol on a rather wide range of measurements, including both physiological and psychological processes. The effect on motor functions is particularly considered, first by an extensive study in which typewriting by skilled operators was used, and later by experiments in which certain new techniques for measuring motor coordination ability were introduced. A special feature of this report, and one that is relatively new in alcohol literature, is the study of very dilute beverages with an effort to relate data on the absorption of alcohol to objective measures of the pharmacodynamic effects. The discussion has not been overburdened by much comparison with results published by other workers. The fact is that little has been done with solutions as dilute as those used in the majority of our experiments, and the present need is for self-consistent and extensive data rather than for extensive generalizations. The report suffers from a good deal of repetition in the description and portrayal of results for different sets of experiments since they are on the same topic and have many measurements in common. The restatement of experimental conditions and the frequent use of certain phrases, for which unfortunately there seem no good substitutes, are in the interest of definiteness and to avoid ambiguity"--Preface.
