Absolute Must Have,
By "roys71" (Lawton, OK United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Addiction and Spirituality: A Multidisciplinary Approach (Paperback)
As a professional in the field of addiction, it has been my experience that the subject of spirituality has been lacking in treatment programs, and this book assists with all aspects and religions. This text not only has a fresh perspective on presenting and addressing spirituality in relation to addiction, it also is a valuable therapeutic resource, to assist the therapist in practical application with the client. I have found spirituality to be a necessity in any successful recovery program. The only problem has been that this subject varies from person to person. This book helps every individual find their own definition to the word "spirituality." I would recommend this book to anyone who comes into contact with the disease of addiction.

A much needed resource, blending scholarship and narratives,
By A Customer
This review is from: Addiction and Spirituality: A Multidisciplinary Approach (Paperback)
This edited book brings together pastors, psychologists, physicians and counselors in a "conversation" about addiction and spirituality. It blends current scholarship on addiction with personal stories of spiritual growth and insights into how to develop spiritually. Bravo!
