5.0 out of 5 stars The Ultimate Step In Understanding Chronic Behavior, January 10, 2002
By 
Bob Jones (Westminster, SC) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Orchestration of Joy and Suffering: Understanding Chronic Addiction (Paperback)
Dr. Gerwe has written a remarkable book. Her creative talent has transformed reseach and technical information into a highly readable and fascinating conception. The integration of psychological findings with stories and case histories is particularly well done. The consumer will readily understand the academic concepts and apply them to his/her personal life experience. This work reminds me of the transitional breakthrough of B.F. Skinner's "Walden Two" and "Beyond Freedom And Dignity". A must read for students of human behavior...and for those of us who just struggle to survive! Three Cheers!
