The Small Book: A Revolutionary Alternative for Overcoming Alcohol and Drug Dependence - Jack Trimpey

When the author and his wife started Rational Recovery in 1986, their program met the huge demand for an alternative to 12-step recovery programs. The Small Book--as opposed to AA's The Big Book--is the secular guide for people who want to recover through self-reliance, not through dependence on religion, sponsors, or Higer Powers. Offering an alternative to twelve-step programs, a supportive guide explains how to identify the impulse to use intoxicants, learn self-control, value sobriety, and replace addiction with self-supportive behaviors.
