ANCIENT AUDIO, BUY THE 2007 REMASTER INSTEAD, September 8, 2008

This review is from: Addictions Volume 1 (Audio CD)

In 2007, Universal UK released a 2CD set, Gold, that is actually Addictions Volumes 1 & 2 remastered.

The original Addictions CD’s are well over 15 years old, and completely out-of-date, from an audio-quality perspective.

The remastered sound is great; all RP fans should divest the two older discs and get the Gold set.

A thought–provoking and important presentation of ideas, May 23, 2003

J. Manly “healthychoices” (Honolulu, HI United States) –

This review is from: The Heart of Addiction: A New Approach to Understanding and Managing Alcoholism and Other Addictive Behaviors (Hardcover)

As a licensed social worker and certified substance abuse counselor, I found the author’s presentation intriguing–for both professional mental health providers and for those struggling with issues of addiction. He makes the case for more individualized treatment, especially the integration of past history with present issues. (In other words, WHY does the addict want to use WHEN he/she does?) According to the author, addiction is a personal and unique response to learned helplessness.) His conceptualization of addiction is one I’d like to see offered as an option to consider for all people seeking treatment for addiction, especially those who struggle with maintaining sobriety and feel stuck in the revolving door.
That said, his limitation is derived from his strength; he focuses solely on the individual. Unfortunately, he does not address what I see as an equally important consideration, the individual in the environment. Addiction will remain such an attractive alternative, especially to our youth, as long as we focus only on negative behaviors such as addctions, and neglect to provide ready access to programs that develop competencies in a wide range, good community recreational programs, and options for training and jobs.

The case history presentation makes for easy reading. The author’s credentials and experience merit consideration from a wide range of readers.

An incredible book — highly recommended!, June 5, 2002

By

A reader in New York (New York, NY) –

This review is from: The Heart of Addiction: A New Approach to Understanding and Managing Alcoholism and Other Addictive Behaviors (Hardcover)

You do not have to see a therapist to benefit from this book! This is the best book I have ever read about addiction. I found it to be different from every other book I’ve ever seen about this topic, and it has been enormously helpful to me, which I have to say was a big surprise given my experience with other books. The author is thoughtful, fair-minded, and compassionate, and the case histories are wonderful. This book really is in a class by itself, because it talks about the emotional basis of addictions in a way that I haven’t seen anywhere else. If you are involved with 12-step programs, I personally think this book is perfectly compatible with them. But whether you have been in 12-step programs or not, this is a must-read book. I highly recommend it to anyone with addictive or compulsive behavior.

Finally!, January 31, 2003

By A Customer

This review is from: The Heart of Addiction: A New Approach to Understanding and Managing Alcoholism and Other Addictive Behaviors (Hardcover)

What a brilliant book! Dr. Dodes crafts an incisive, kind and compelling thesis about what drives addictions. The book is filled to bursting with illuminating case studies, many of which will apply to yourself or loved ones. Whatever the problem, he’s got you covered. The writing is pitch perfect and the thinking is lucid. Dodes is the first author I’ve read who is really on to something. This book should be required reading for anyone touched by addiction.
