Books on Recovery

This is the only book on alcoholism that truly educates both the addicted and the people close to those addicted to alcohol.

Through new and current medical, physical and emotional information you can trace the roots of this disease to the alcoholic's unique and unusual body chemistry, laying to rest arguments for weakness of will or "alcoholic personality."

This sound and sensitive book addresses the very real pain that those who love an alcoholic must bear.  With compassion and honesty, the author speaks to not only the alcoholic, but the other victims — the family & friends and gives a voice to the silent victims.
