Central nervous system dysfunction is the most consistently observed, and certainly the most devastating, clinical abnormality in children of mothers who drank heavily during pregnancy. In fact, maternal alcohol abuse during pregnancy may be the commonest environmental cause of mental deficiency in the Western world. One of the first goals of foetal alcohol research has been to determine how and to what extent alcohol damages the developing brain. This book brings together leading researchers to discuss the problem in its behavioural, neurochemical, and morphological aspects, based on their work in both animals and humans.
