Introduction
The idea for a slide rule device to make simple estimates of the concentration of alcohol circulating in an individual's blood after consumption of various beverages was first put into practice by Dr.
Leon A. Greenberg of the Rutgers University Center of Alcohol Studies in 1971. The present copyrighted ALCO-CALCULATOR, although the same in principle as the original, makes certain simplifying revisions, and extends its use to females.
