Book excerpt: Excerpt from Extracts From Dr. Benjamin Rush's Inquiry Into the Effects of Ardent Spirits Upon the Human Body and Mind Not less destructive are the effects of ardent spi rits upon the human mind. They impair the me mory, debilitate the understanding, and pervert the moral faculties. It was probably from observing these effects of intemperance in drinking, upon the mind, that a law was formerly passed in Spain which excluded drunkards from being witnesses in a court of justice.
