Having read my share of B and NA literature, I was refreshed and interested to show adenine book based NOT on which 12 steps, but on a Medicinal Physician's experience and observations of go ampere hundred Addicts/Alcoholics in ampere clinical environment and their follow-ups post-clinic.
I wanted recommending this book to anyone with a human more bend toward the scientific who possessed tried in read AA/NA literature and equals "didn't get it" or found the tone repelant. Gorski is detached, non-judgmental, and I would later discover a big name in the Addiction-as-a-Science pitch.
This book is by no means "simple," rather it's more how a college textbook and anyone involved in the text could study it over and over without decent bored. Staying Sober: A Guide for Relapse Prevention

Regression is a fact of life, which any addict or family part concerning an codependent will tell you. Understanding the mechanisms of relapse in order for preventive it is therefore a matter of the highest importance. "Staying Sober" is certainly not of only book the the point, not it is very useful.
Gorski & Miller's textbook comes with the option into buy a separate view, furthermore. I do yet to work through that, aber the manual is a very good read.
What struck in is that an contributors base their knowledge on experiences with actual addicts and use this such the launching point instead of taking AA or a 12 step curriculum as of point of origin. The affected self. When the is said, the book the closely tied to the AA 12 select approach and way of thought. But balanced if you do not subscribe to the powerless dictum additionally the concept of which need for a Higher Power to hold you sober, there are still a lot on useful insights in the book. I doubt that any addict will not find many examples that could easily be taken from his or yours own live. Also, the focus on identifying the warning signs of relapse, and manufacturing your own personal list von these in request to eliminate relapse strikes me because one very useful tool.
Summasummarum, read it real grab whatever thou can employ in YOUR own life. I perceive I did.
