This book has everything you need to know about the signs and symptoms of alcohol and drug abuse. It gives spicific reasons why you cannot kick these habits without professioal help. Not being well versed on these subjects it was very informative. It shows the author did extensive reserch on these subjects. I will pass this book on to my friends and family.

This book is appropriate for those who need a quick introduction to the problems of addiction. Its intent is not to go into depth on any one topic but to give the reader a brief synopsis of the issue so they can go and read further into the topic if necessary. This book might be good for family and friends entering an Alanon Family group to give them a rudimentary understanding of the disease of addiction.

The Life Tips collection is a wonderful opportunity to be a 'catch all' type of reference book. Not claiming to be all encompassing, it IS a good tool for the user.

Blythe has a breezy, conversational writing style, and the tips she collected include those for the health care professional, counselor, and recovering person. It lends itself well as a starting point for research and discussion.

If another printing is done, I hope some of the simple typos can be corrected (Editor!), but they don't detract from the purpose or direction of the author's work.

Worthwhile.

EVERYONE IN EVERY FAMILY MUST HAVE SOMEONE THAT IS SUFFERING, ALONG WITH THE REST OF THE FAMILY, WITH SUBSTANCE ABUSE OF SOME SORT. THE QUESTION ALWAYS IS WHAT CAN WE DO? WELL THIS BOOK TELLS YOU WHAT YOU CAN DO. THIS BOOK GIVES YOU ALL THE OPTIONS YOU CAN TAKE IN EITHER HELPING YOURSELF OR GIVING IT TO SOMEONE WHO IS IN DESPERATE NEED OF BEING SAVED.
THANKS FOR ALL YOUR RESEARCH AND YOUR IMPORTANT MESSAGE. KEEP UP THE GREAT WORK!
