The star and creative force behind Mr. Show and Arrested Development pens his "first and final book, chronicling his meteoric rise and abysmal fall in the literary world." After a decade spent in isolation in the Ugandan jungles thinking about stuff, David Cross has written his first book. Known for roles on the small screen such as "never-nude" Tobias Funke on Arrested Development and the role of "David" in Mr. Show With Bob And David, as well as a hugely successful stand-up routine full of sharp-tongued rants and rages, Cross has carved out his place in American comedy. Whether deflating the pomposity of religious figures, calling out the pathetic symbiosis of pseudo-celebrity and its leaching fandom, or merely pushing the buttons of the way-too-easily offended P.C. left or the caustic, double-standard of the callous (but funnier) right, Cross has something to say about everyone, including his own ridiculous self. Now, for the first time, Cross is weaving his media mockery, celebrity denunciation, religious commentary and sheer madness into book form, revealing the true story behind his almost existential distaste of Jim Belushi ("The Belush"), disclosing the up-to-now unpublished minutes to a meeting of Fox television network executives, and offering up a brutally grotesque run-in with Bill O'Reilly. And as if this wasn't enough for your laughing pleasure in these troubled times, some of the pieces splinter off with additional material being created online in exclusive video and animated web content created solely for the book-a historical first (presumably)! With a mix of personal essays, satirical fiction posing as truth, advice for rich people, information from America's least favorite Rabbi and a top-ten list of top-ten lists, I Drink for a Reason is as unique as the comedian himself, and cannot be missed.

Alcohol use by young people is extremely dangerous - both to themselves and society at large. Underage alcohol use is associated with traffic fatalities, violence, unsafe sex, suicide, educational failure, and other problem behaviors that diminish the prospects of future success, as well as health risks â€" and the earlier teens start drinking, the greater the danger. Despite these serious concerns, the media continues to make drinking look attractive to youth, and it remains possible and even easy for teenagers to get access to alcohol. Why is this dangerous behavior so pervasive? What can be done to prevent it? What will work and who is responsible for making sure it happens? Reducing Underage Drinking addresses these questions and proposes a new way to combat underage alcohol use. It explores the ways in which may different individuals and groups contribute to the problem and how they can be enlisted to prevent it. Reducing Underage Drinking will serve as both a game plan and a call to arms for anyone with an investment in youth health and safety.

Alcohol is a killerâ€"1 of every 13 deaths in the United States is alcohol-related. In addition, 5 percent of the population consumes 50 percent of the alcohol. The authors take a close look at the problem in a "classy little study," as The Washington Post called this book. The Library Journal states, "...[T]his is one book that addresses solutions....And it's enjoyably readable....This is an excellent review for anyone in the alcoholism prevention business, and good background reading for the interested layperson." The Washington Post agrees: the book "...likely will wind up on the bookshelves of counselors, politicians, judges, medical professionals, and law enforcement officials throughout the country."

This book is a revolutionary approach to defeating addiction and a multiplier of empathy and insight that will aid in understanding others as well as yourself. If you don't understand a problem, how can you possibly hope to fix it? If you have no intention of becoming sober, you will find these 69 excuses to drink alcohol entertaining-because you must've used some of these excuses in the past, perhaps all of them. However, if you are actively seeking to become sober, this book might just be the tool you need to achieve your goal. 69 Excuses for Drinking Alcohol could have been called 69 Excuses for Keeping Your Bad Habits and Addictions Alive or 69 Excuses to Take Drugs. I chose alcohol in particular as it has become ingrained into many cultures and thus accepted as "normal" and "safe". For me, alcohol symbolises addiction. If you can control your intake of alcohol; if you can choose to consume or not consume it, you will have mastery over yourself and will not know apathy or pessimism again. You will have defeated addiction and regained control of your life. When your addiction controls you, makes you lie and invent excuses, makes you desperate and dependant, it is no longer a case of you wanting that thing to continue, it is a case of you being so far down the rabbit hole that continuing down seems easier than climbing out. This Book Is a Mirror Climbing out, recovering, becoming reborn is made easier when we stop avoiding mirrors. This book is a mirror. In this book you will meet yourself; you will recognise yourself in these pages of excuses. No excuse-making addicts should feel weak or inferior, it is the genius of their minds that is responsible for their continuing woes-we are just too damn convincing, and we have a bad habit of always listening to ourselves the most. When, however, you stand before a mirror, you will be forced to begin caring and get your house in order or say, 'Nothing matters. I don't care about anything.' This book is one that you can use whenever you have cravings or wish to become sober and it will prove to you that everything matters, including you. A mirror like this book will force you to say either: 'I am truly happy living this way, I don't need to change anything, ' or, 'I will no longer make excuses. When I'm about to make an excuse, I will avoid the behaviour that required me to make excuses in advance to justify it.' I was once a slave to addictions: alcohol, caffeine, sugar and many other bad habits besides-we are all on similar journeys. However, addiction is not for life because it destroys life and thus should be a very temporary measure. It should be a learning experience, it is something to be fought and conquered-it is not a solution or a life choice. I will share the methods and thinking responsible for me escaping the 'excuse and denial prison' in the hope that your life will become more positive than negative, more love than hate, more pride than shame, more reward than regret, more free than enslaved, more purposeful, more profound, more optimistic-more natural. If you smoke, drink, take drugs, binge or gamble you are already engaged in a war against yourself. An inner conflict is raging inside you, the result always being the same: self-harm. This book is your ally, your weapon. Religion is not mentioned in this book, no meetings are suggested. Nothing is expected of you. This is simply a collection of my thoughts on alcohol, the thoughts of a former alcoholic who realised he was unable to develop a healthy relationship with alcohol, that it caused him and his family harm. Many find it hard to take advice or ask for help, and if you are such a person, this quirky book may be the right fit for you, because when read fully it will empower you to choose whether or not you continue to consume alcohol.

From a certified life coach, a guide for the sober curious on how to take a break from alcohol. Many people have silently asked themselves why can’t I drink like everyone else? They wonder why sometimes it feels like alcohol has a pull over them, that they don’t understand, and don’t like to talk about. They are frustrated that other people can control how much they drink without any problem, when their efforts are often hit or miss. Rachel Hart has spent years trying to answer these questions for herself and untangle this mystery. Deep down, she was afraid that her drinking was always going to be a problem, and grew more and more frustrated of the repercussions. As the years mounted, she worried that not being able to rein herself in meant something was really wrong with her. There is a solution?and it doesn’t require anyone to wear a label for the rest of their life or admit to being powerless. In fact, the tools outlined inside will reveal just how much power there is within each and every person struggling with this issue.

An "entertaining and enlightening" deep dive into the alcohol-soaked origins of civilization—and the evolutionary roots of humanity's appetite for intoxication (Daniel E. Lieberman, author of Exercised). While plenty of entertaining books have been written about the history of alcohol and other intoxicants, none have offered a comprehensive, convincing answer to the basic question of why humans want to get high in the first place. Drunk elegantly cuts through the tangle of urban legends and anecdotal impressions that surround our notions of intoxication to provide the first rigorous, scientifically-grounded explanation for our love of alcohol. Drawing on evidence from archaeology, history, cognitive neuroscience, psychopharmacology, social psychology, literature, and genetics, Drunk shows that our taste for chemical intoxicants is not an evolutionary mistake, as we are so often told. In fact, intoxication helps solve a number of distinctively human challenges: enhancing creativity, alleviating stress, building trust, and pulling off the miracle of getting fiercely tribal primates to cooperate with strangers. Our desire to get drunk, along with the individual and social benefits provided by drunkenness, played a crucial role in sparking the rise of the first large-scale societies. We would not have civilization without intoxication. From marauding Vikings and bacchanalian orgies to sex-starved fruit flies, blind cave fish, and problem-solving crows, Drunk is packed with fascinating case studies and engaging science, as well as practical takeaways for individuals and communities. The result is a captivating and long overdue investigation into humanity's oldest indulgence—one that explains not only why we want to get drunk, but also how it might actually be good for us to tie one on now and then.
