A TRIBUTE TO THE MEDICAL COUNCIL ON ALCOHOLISM, ITS JOURNAL AND THEIR SUPPORTERS AS WE ENTER THE NEW MILLENNIUM
Happy 2000 to all our readers, contributors, dedicated members of the Editorial Team and Editorial Advisory Board, and our expert independent referees, and to members, officers and staff of the Medical Council on Alcoholism (MCA), the European Society for Biomedical Research on Alcoholism (ESBRA), and our publisher, Oxford University Press (OUP). The new millennium is upon us and, as we promised last year (Badawy and Tipton, 1999
), we consider it appropriate at this important landmark of the Christian (Western) Calendar to review the history of Alcohol and Alcoholism and its progress, and, in doing so, to pay tribute to its parent organization, the MCA, and to those individuals who have been instrumental in the development of both parent and child and their supporters.
The reader of this issue will see that invited special articles have been written, among which one (Nordmann, 2000
) on ESBRA by its founding President
