Our brains and the quality of our infancies have a profound influence on working the 12 steps, which are so basic to any recovery program such as Alcoholics Anonymous. Working the 12 steps changes our brains. Therefore, the more we know about how the brain works, as described in this book, the more likely we will be to know what we're actually dealing with as we develop our own concept of a power greater than ourselves, work with a sponsor, take inventory, practice meditation and work with others. Our problems may be caused by factors of which we are totally unaware. This book spells out what may be causing these problems and what can be done about them through using the 12 steps and sponsorship. We need not change any steps. It is a question of where our attention is focused and the depth of our awareness. We don't have to be brain scientists.

If you or someone you know is in recovery from addiction of any sort, this book is an invaluable resource that explains the mysteries behind why the AA program seems to work where many others fail. It explains how the steps of AA and the roles one takes on in AA help to reshape the way the brain actually works, thereby healing many of the addictive patterns that have been built into the brain by years of substance abuse.Obviously the founders of AA, in the early part of the 20th century, had no idea they were formulating a series of steps and repetitive actions that would actually act as a kind of behavioral therapy or a biofeedback process. Nonetheless, this seems to be why AA has the success it does. Reading this book made it much easier to be a willing participant in the AA program, because I could understand the value of the sometimes mysterious requests and demands placed upon me by the program.
This book adds the 21st-century science to the AA literature, information it never could have had when it was written. And it makes it much easier for a 21st-century skeptic to stomach the rigors of AA.

The book game me insight on my behaviors and explanations/reasons for them. It wasn't too technical. I finished the book! Any book that even begins to bore me gets closed and forgotten. I simply like the book.
