About ebook: Drunk. How We Sipped, Danced, And Stumbled Our Way To Civilization By Edward Slingerland
Quote:Avtor knigi, izvestnyy psiholog-kognitivist Edvard Slingerlend, predlagaet vzglyanut' na privychnye veshchi po novomu. Udovol'stviya i naslazhdeniya, po ego mneniyu, sleduet rassmatrivat' s tochki zreniya evolyucionnoy neobhodimosti. Nakopiv nemalo interesneyshego materiala po istorii alkogolya, uchenyy risuet vseob"emlyushchuyu kartinu vzaimootnosheniy cheloveka i odurmanivayushchih veshchestv. Na protyazhenii tysyacheletiy lyudi proyavlyali chudesa izobretatel'nosti, chtoby dobit'sya zavetnoy celi - poluchit' napitok, kotoryy smozhet razveselit', oblegchit' obshchenie i, samoe glavnoe, pomoch' adaptirovat'sya k sushchestvovaniyu v neprostoy srede i spravit'sya so vsemi trudnostyami. No esli v malyh dozah alkogol' - nash pomoshchnik i drug, to v bol'shih - zaklyatyy vrag i razrushitel'. Pochemu tak proiskhodit? Mozhno li maksimal'no ispol'zovat' preimushchestva odurmanivayushchih veshchestv, vzyav pod kontrol' ih zhestokie posledstviya? V legkoy, shutlivoy manere Slingerlend otvechaet na eti voprosy. On uvlekaet chitatelya v zahvatyvayushchee puteshestvie po proshlomu, veselo rasskazyvaet o tradiciyah pitiya v sovremennyh obshchestvah, a krome togo, ob"yasnyaet, kak cheloveku v budushchem sdelat' alkogol' faktorom obshchestvennogo progressa.
