Please note that the content of this book primarily consists of articles available from Wikipedia or other free sources online. Alcohol intoxication is the physiological state induced by the consumption of alcohol, which builds up in the bloodstream faster than it can be metabolized by the liver. Some effects of alcohol intoxication are central to alcohol's popularity as a beverage and its history as the world's most widespread recreational drug, while others are unpleasant or dangerous because alcohol affects many different areas of the body at once and may cause progressive, long-term harm when consumed in excess.
