Summary of this Book...
I have always found the contents of this book to be both fascinating and words to live by. One does not have to be an addict to gain from practicing what is taught in these pages. However when the truth is known each of us is addicted to something, whether that addiction be to people, power, substances, or whatever. The only thing misleading about this book is the title because it leads one to believe it deals with drugs. It does not. It deals with the disease of addiction in general, with drugs being the primary manifestation of that illness.
This type of Book is good for...
it is good for recovery from the disease of addiction. It is also an excellent way of life. Those who practice what is taught within it's pages find themselves much more serene in the face of the storms of life.
I especially liked...
The first 107, which are the how and why of the book. The remainder is personal stories.
I didn't like...
I didn't like the title. As I said it makes it seem as if the book focuses only on narcotics. It focuses on the disease of addiction.
When I finished reading this Book I wanted to...
The first time I read this book I wanted to sue somebody. I thought they had written my memoirs without my permission! The book applies that closely to everybody in some way.
This Book made me feel...
Like I had hope.
The author of this Book...
Narcotics Anonymous World Services and thousands of addicts worldwide.
I recommend this Book because...
It definitely helps improve one's life. If one is an addict it can save your life.
I don't recommend this Book because...
There is no reason I don't recommend this book.
