Volume one of Alcoholism and Addiction Recovery presented the last 2 or five booklets authored by Robert C. Hickle. This work, volume two, presents the remaining two. "Pearl of Great Price" and "Keeping It Simple" broaden and deepen an accounting of Bob's experiences, observations, perceptions, and opinions about alcoholism, and by extension, drugs, and other addictions, those who suffer from them, and how help and recovery can be reached.
With chapter titles like "Dry for 15 Years, Happy for Three Months", "Stop Being Part of the Problem", "Alcohol Is Not the Problem", and finally, "We've Got to Go at It Backwards", Bob presents what he has learned from alcoholics, addicts, and their families over his 40-plus-year career. Straight talk, jargon-free, and down-to-earth are the hallmarks of his writing style as he tries to flesh out the complicated problems of alcoholism and addiction into practical, everyday terms and concepts for any alcoholic, addict, their family, and counseling professional can use to supplement their path to recovery.
