Inhoud:

Robert Louis Stevenson's Strange Case of Dr Jekyll and Mr Hyde is viewed as the classic allegory of man's duality - the good and evil embodied in every person. But could Jekyll's ""transforming draught"" have been alcohol? This book investigates Stevenson's Strange Case of Dr Jekyll and Mr Hyde as an allegory of alcoholism.
