The Heart of Addiction: A New Approach to Understanding and Managing Alcoholism and Other Addictive Behaviors
€œDr. Dodes€s approach runs directly counter to the paralyzing, but standard, message of €˜powerlessness€€"a mesÂsage that reinforces the sense of helplessness that is at the root of addicts€ life predicaments! Many psychiatrists recognize that this is where we must head, but Dr. Dodes is one with the guts to shine a beacon in the right direction.€Â

By recognizing and understanding the emotional forces underlying addictive behaviors, Dr. Dodes says any dangerous, life-destroying obsession can be overcome. Including special bonus sections for both families and health-care professionals, Breaking Addiction is the new handbook for those suffering from addiction€"a valuable resource that addresses addiction€s root causes and serves as an alternative to Alcoholics Anonymous and similar recovery programs.
