Addiction and Change: How Addictions Develop and Addicted People Recover (Guilford Substance Abuse S

This book is very well written and easy to understand. This step approach to addiction recovery is both powerful and sensible.
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 find this resource to be "verbose;" rather I thought the presentation was cogent and crisp. Scholarly yet practical without pedantry this is an informative piece of literature in a field where one needs all of the resources one can get. Highly recommended.
