Abstract

Intoxicants may have symbolic and ritualistic significance and they are widely used to provide excuses for social ineptitude, poor performance, bad behaviour and various other kinds of failure. There are no grounds for attributing to their pharmacological properties any feelings of well-being or joy that may be associated with their use.
