That's Dr. Claude Steiner's message in his astonishing new best -seller that is giving new hope to problem drinkers and their families. With his new treatment for America's biggest health problem, which the Los Angeles Times has called "amazingly successful," he has cured many problem drinkers who have come to help him for help. Now he summarizes his approach and tells how it works: Why alcoholism is not a disease- and why treating an alcoholic as a "sick" man may do him more harm than good. How a person chooses a role for himself in early age that may turn him into an alcoholic. The three distinct types of alcoholics and the different games they play. How the alcoholic can "unmake' his decision and become truly cured.
