DESCRIPTION:
Kenneth Martin said Essential reading for everyone in treatment for alcoholism. If you think you might have an alcohol problem, this is a good book to consult. Cary is an unapologetic advocate for AA, the program whose methods are adopted by most rehab centers. But the most valuable aspect of the book is the detailed accounts of how these men developed and evolved through their years of sobriety.
These men share their battles with alcoholism and the adjustments they had to make down the road of recovery.. The Alcoholic Man is a survey of recovering alcoholics with varying lengths of sobriety and the obstacles these individuals have had to overcome. The notions of alcoholism and of heroism seem diametrically opposed, but the recovering alcoholic understands the courage it takes to live a happy, productive life while dealing with the disease of alcoholism
