Various

Published by Yale University, New Haven, 1944

Early printing of the Quarterly Journal of Studies on Alcohol; third printing, 1946. Published by the Center for Alcohol Studies [CAS], now at Rutgers University. CAS was the first research institute dedicated to alcohol studies after the 21st amendment to the U.S. Constitution repealed prohibition in 1933. The center was founded at Yale as a research area in the Applied Physiology department in 1935. E. Morton Jellinek was Director of the Center until the 1950s, and stepped down when he was offered a position at the World Health Organization. He was replaced by Selden D. Bacon. The Yale Center of Alcohol Studies opened the first Summer School of Alcohol Studies in 1943, and in 1944 opened a free clinic devoted to treating alcoholism. The Summer School still continues every year. The CAS at Yale funded the early years of the National Council on Alcoholism NCA, now known as the National Council on Alcoholism and Drug Dependence, NCAAD. Seller Inventory # 200542
