Excerpt from Grappling With the Monster, or the Curse and the Cure of Strong Drink N preparing this, his latest volume, the author found I himself embarrassed from the beginning, because of the large amount of material which came into his hands, and the consequent difficulty of selection and condensation. There is not a chapter which might not have been extended to twice its present length, nor a fact stated, or argument used, which might not have been supplemented by many equally pertinent and conclusive. The extent to which alcohol curses the whole people cannot be shown in a few pages: the sad and terrible history would fill hundreds of volumes. And the same may be said of the curse which this poisonous substance lays upon the souls and bodies of men. Fearful as is the record which will be found in the chapters devoted to the curse of drink, let the reader bear in mind that a thousandth part has not been told.

All this in a single year, and at a cost variously estimated at from six to sevenhundred millions of dollars! Or, a sum, as statistics tell us, nearly equal to the costof all the flour, cotton and woolen goods, boots and shoes, clothing, and books andnewspapers purchased by the people in the same period of time.If this were all the cost? If the people wasted no more than seven hundred millionsof dollars on these beverages every year, the question of their use would be onlyone of pecuniary loss or gain. But what farther, in connection with this subject, arewe told by statistics? Why, that, in consequence of using these beverages, we havesix hundred thousand drunkards; and that of these, sixty thousand die every year.That we have over three hundred murders and four hundred suicides. That overtwo hundred thousand children are left homeless and friendless. And that at leasteighty per cent. of all the crime and pauperism of the land arises from theconsumption of this enormous quantity of intoxicating drinks.In this single view, the question of intemperance assumes a most appalling aspect.

Despite its obvious advantages, our ability to be self-reflective comes at a high price. Few people realize how profoundly their lives are affected by self-reflection or how frequently inner chatter interferes with their success, pollutes their relationships with others, and undermines their happiness. By allowing people to ruminate about the past or imagine what might happen in the future, self-reflection conjures up a great deal of personal suffering in the form of depression, anxiety, anger, jealousy, and other negative emotions. A great deal of unhappiness, in the form of addictions, overeating, and domestic violence, is due to people's inability to exert control over their thoughts and behavior. Is it possible to direct our self-reflection in a way that will minimize the disadvantages and maximize the advantages? Is there a way to affect the egotistical self through self-reflection? In this volume, Mark Leary explores the personal and social problems that are created by the capacity for self-reflection, and by drawing upon psychology and other behavioral sciences, offers insights into how these problems can be minimized.

Excerpt from Strong Drink: The Curse and the Cure Don't say that, my friend. You must resist this devil and, like all other devils, when met by resist ance, he will flee from you. A short, bitter laugh, and then: He isn't one of that kind. But, surely, Granger, you will not give up your manhood to the vice of an appetite?
