Thank you Bill
It's amazing to me the amount of criticism this book generates. I would like to say to anyone seeking answers in AA keep seeking and don't give up. There are many bitter souls who never obtain sobriety or are so adamant against spirituality that they would try to destroy anyone who is trying to better their life through a spiritual awakening and reliance on God. Do not listen to the scoffers. You ...

It is Great!
It Was Good is a collection of twenty-one artists and their very insightful essays on art. The book isn't just a "write what you want about art" sort of book. It covers various subjects in an orderly fashion. Some of the topics are: Beauty, Substance, Presence, Mission, Community, Essence, Identity. Every chapter is very well written, well laid out and inspiring. Color plates of some of ...
Addiction and Change: How Addictions Develop and Addicted People Recover (The Guilford Substance Abuse Series)

How people become addicted; how they recover.
This book, based upon the Prochaska and Norcross model of "stages of change" is a vital resource for the chemical dependency/abuse counselor, or anyone else who works with this population. The authors clearly delineate how a person becomes addicted (using the stages of change model- except in reverse), then moving on to the process of recovery. Contrary to an earlier review, I did not ...

Loved this book ...
This book prompted me to sign up for a painting class in my area. It challenged me to stop wasting my gift; God gave it to me and it's my responsibility to cultivate it. Dr. Ryken does a wonderful job pointing out the importance of the arts and the role the arts should play in our society and the Christian community. He may push some buttons for those who see the arts only as an avenue for ...

Actually Five-Plus Stars !!
This workbook is the best cognitive approach (CBT) to recovery that I have read so far. Outstanding and easy to comprehend. ` In the 12-Step Programs, those of us who have not experienced an anthropomorphic God (i.e., one who intervenes in human affairs) have an uphill battle with the religionists who want to promote their Higher Power (usually Jesus). Even my beloved Bill W. wrote the Chapter ...

Goodbye ed, Hello Me
I love this book. It is easy to read as it is broken up into small chapters. Jenni is upbeat and very convincing. I like how she doesn't leave room for many excuses in recovery. The book is easy to relate to and I would recommend this book to anybody who is in recovery from an eating disorder.

Better Than a $1,000 of therapy!
As a man, I was surprised how far I fell from grace when a four year relationship with a woman that pushed me to "get married" suddenly and unexpectedly decided to "break-up", after I agreed to "get married"... Huh? My Hearty was broken and my head was all messed-up! This book really helped me start moving on "head and heart" from the beginning... no typical "girly" perspectives or "PMS" excuses. ...

"Nagging Pain" vs. Serious Injury
If you run fewer than 30 miles a week, have never uttered the words "my coach" or "my physiotherapist," have never won more than a goodie bag at a 10k... in short, if you are a committed, non-elite, non-professional runner, this book is a must. This is not to say that professionals won't benefit - they will. But for those of us who don't receive regular training-level medical attention, the ...

The Best Book I've read to help my children
This book has been an excellent book that has helped me walk through the steps of child abuse. Some of the things I love about this book are: ease of reading-easy to understand with suggestions on how to help my children. It has helped me to understand where I am as a parent. Short chapters make jumping around easier. I have young children and this book has been a tremendous help for all of ...

Offers hope and means to organize and measure steps towards recovery
Almost 20 years ago I was graduated from physical therapy and told there would be no further improvement. So glad times have changed. I like that the book does not accept limits on the extent of potential recovery or the time within which recovery can still occur. Breaking down exercises into parts that can be accomplished and intensified with a workbook for setting goals, recording ...

Authoritative and warm
This book struck exactly the right chord for the hepatitis C sufferer who is feeling overwhelmed but wants scientifically rigorous information in a form that he or she can use. It is full of clear, factual answers to the question every hep C positive person has, with the scientific bases explained well but in a nonintimidating way. But it also tackles those thornier questions of how to find a ...

Cancer Recovery Guide: 15 Alternative and Complementary Strategies for Restoring Health

essential overview of alternative therapies for cancer
Let me declare my interest. I am the author of this book. I wrote it because I believe the information is important. My wife died as much from her orthodox treatments as from the cancer itself - but how could we have avoided doing the orthodox treatments? This book explains very clearly why the orthodox treatments are problematic. It also explains why many of the so-called alternative and ...

ROTATION, ROTATION, ROTATION
A rotation diet is overwhelming! Our child's developmental progress improves so much on a gluten free diet (The SCD diet for ASD) that our doctor finally agreed to the allergy tests, which revealed a long list of other IGg allergies in additon to the gluten and Bakers Yeast I had already suspected. Also, he was starting to register allergies to everything else he ate. This book offered so much ...

A Real Life Indiana Jones...in Downtown Bahgdad!
Matthew Bogdanos' story of the lost antiquities of the Bahgdad Museum is a fascinating and informative account of his experiences with an interagency counterterrorism unit following 9/11. However, its not just about Bahgdad, as he tells us about the challenges he faces growing up in downtown New York, his roots in Greek and Middle Eastern classics, etc. In fact, despite the extraordinary depth ...
