Cheaper than a 12 pack
This book explains what it means to be an Alcoholic. Being an Alchoholic is as much an attitude towards yourself and life, as a craving for alcohol. For the many who are at the bottom looking for answers, or to the skeptic who isn't sure whether or not they are an Alchoholic, this book offers clear answers to a confusing problem.

I bought this book one day after experiencing a wonderful hangover, and then it sat on my bookshelf unread for years. I actually read the book while drinking a glass of wine. As I turned the pages, I realized more and more the exact measure of how much I had lost control of my life, and the capacity I possessed for lying to myself.

Spend 12 dollars for a 12 pack and have fun tonight, or spend 12 dollars on this book and learn what it takes to have fun for the rest of your life... real fun.

Wonderful Book
Twenty years of soberity here. Yes it is time for an update and this is it. I would recommend this book to new people in AA along with the book An Encounter With A Prophet.

A truly needed book in the Program- Possibly a new Big Book.
With 7 years in the Program, I am amazed that a book like this hasn't been published sooner. A very needed addition/update to the Big Book. Possibly a preview of what the next revision of the Big Book will look like. Although I am considered a "Big Book thumper" I find no fault in this translation of "our bible...." Masterfully done and a true landmark for those of us in the Program today..... Yes it is 1998 and time for an update such as this..... rw texas
