Heavy Drinking informs the general public for the first time how recent research has discredited almost every widely held belief about alcoholism, including the very concept of alcoholism as a single disease with a unique cause. Herbert Fingarette presents constructive approaches to heavy drinking, including new methods of helping heavy drinkers and social policies for preventing heavy drinking and the harms associated with it.

Herbert Fingarette explores the terrain of moral responsibility. As a philosophical idea, responsibility poses vexing questions such as what does it mean to be a responsible person? or i why is it that some individuals are causaly responsible for something, but not legally or morally accountable? And what is the authority that holds people responsible for their actions? In exploring these, Fingarette employs a diversse range of ideas including standpoints of moral philosophy, moral psychology, and psychoanalytic psychology. Free of academic jargon and dense references, Mapping Responsibility is written to appeal to the general reader as well as his followers in the scholarly community.
