A Snake on the Rocks: A Deep Exploration of Alcoholism and Its Implications
By Paul McCullough
This book, written from my experience as a neuropsychologist and my commitment to human well-being, was conceived with a clear purpose: to provide a comprehensive understanding of alcoholism—from its origins to its wide-ranging implications—and to serve as an accessible guide for those directly or indirectly affected by problematic alcohol use, as well as for professionals working in its treatment and prevention.
What is Alcohol, and How Did It Come About?I explore what alcohol is, how it was discovered, and why it has become such an entrenched element of various cultures. Understanding its history helps us grasp its profound impact on our lives today.
Alcoholism as a Disease: Alcohol Use Disorder (AUD)I examine how alcoholism is not merely problematic behaviour but a recognised disease that affects both the body and mind. This scientific and humane approach seeks to destigmatise and clarify the nature of AUD.
Alcohol and the BrainDrawing on my expertise in neuropsychology, I explain how alcohol affects the brain on multiple levels—from its initial chemical interactions to profound structural and behavioural changes.
Predisposing FactorsWhat leads a person to develop alcohol dependency? I analyse the genetic, environmental, psychological, and social factors that contribute to the development of this condition.
The Classic Stages of AUDI detail the progression of Alcohol Use Disorder, from initial consumption to its most advanced stages, providing a clear understanding of the disease’s trajectory.
TreatmentBased on my experience and the latest research, I propose therapeutic approaches ranging from traditional to innovative methods, aiming to offer hope and practical tools for recovery.

Derecho al desistimiento
Si es un consumidor, puede rescindir el contrato de acuerdo con lo siguiente. Por consumidor se entiende cualquier persona física que actúe con fines ajenos a su actividad comercial, empresarial, oficio o profesión.
Información sobre el derecho de desistimiento
Derecho legal de desistimiento
Tiene derecho a rescindir este contrato en un plazo de 14 días sin dar ningún motivo.
El periodo de desistimiento vencerá a los 14 días desde que usted, o un tercero que no sea el transportista e indicado por usted, adquiera la posesión física del último bien o del último lote o pieza.
Para ejercer el derecho de desistimiento, complete de forma electrónica y envíe una declaración clara en nuestro sitio web, desde "Mis compras" en "Mi cuenta". Le enviaremos sin demora un acuse de recibo de dicho desistimiento a través de un soporte duradero (por ejemplo, por correo electrónico).
Para cumplir con el plazo de desistimiento, basta con que envíe su comunicación relativa al ejercicio del derecho de desistimiento antes de que venza el periodo de desistimiento.
Efectos del desistimiento
Si rescinde este contrato, le reembolsaremos todos los pagos que hayamos recibido de usted, incluidos los gastos de envío (excepto los gastos adicionales que surjan si elige un tipo de envío que no sea el tipo de envío estándar más económico que ofrecemos).
Podemos hacer una deducción del reembolso por la pérdida de valor de cualquier bien suministrado, si la pérdida es el resultado de una manipulación innecesaria por su parte.
Efectuaremos el reembolso sin demoras indebidas y, a más tardar, 14 días después de que se nos informe de su decisión de rescindir este contrato.
Efectuaremos el reembolso utilizando el mismo medio de pago que utilizó para la transacción inicial, a menos que haya acordado expresamente lo contrario; en cualquier caso, no incurrirá en ningún cargo como resultado de dicho reembolso.
Podremos retener el reembolso hasta que hayamos recibido los bienes o hasta que nos haya presentado una prueba de que los ha devuelto, lo que ocurra primero.
