Download or read book Research on Alcoholics Anonymous and Spirituality in Addiction Recovery written by Marc Galanter and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2008-12-05 with total page 461 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: It was once taken for granted that peer-assisted groups such as Alcoholics Anonymous had no “real” value in recovery from addiction. More recently, evidence-based medicine is recognizing a spiritual component in healing—especially when it comes to addiction. The newest edition of Recent Developments in Alcoholism reflects this change by focusing on the 12-step model of recovery as well as mindfulness meditation and other spiritually oriented activity. More than thirty contributors bring together historical background, research findings, and clinical wisdom to analyze the compatibility of professional treatment and nonprofessional support, day-to-day concepts of relapse prevention, the value of community building in recovery, and much more. Among the topics covered: (1) How and why 12-step groups work. (2) The impact of the spiritual on mainstream treatment. (3) The impact of AA on other nonprofessional recovery programs. (4) AA outcomes for special populations. (5) Facilitating involvement in 12-step programs. (6) Methods for measuring religiousness and spirituality in alcohol research. Whether one is referring clients to 12-step programs or seeking to better understand the process, this is a unique resource for clinicians and social workers. Developmental psychologists, too, will find Volume 18—Research on Alcoholics Anonymous and Spirituality in Addiction Recovery a worthy successor to the series.

Book excerpt: The book that revolutionized the psychotherapist's approach totreating alcoholism When it was first published in 1985, Treating the Alcoholicchallenged traditional psychotherapeutic approaches to alcoholismtreatment. Since then, thousands of mental health professionals,using Dr. Stephanie Brown's treatment model, have found renewedfaith in their ability to help alcoholic patients achieve lastingrecovery. The book begins by studying the experiences of people who havestopped drinking and provides firsthand descriptions of theinevitable emotional, physical, and psychological problems thatfollow. Dr. Brown then offers a model for treatment that replacesthe notion of abstinence as a static state with a dynamic,process-oriented "continuum of recovery" principle. She translatesthe twelve steps of Alcoholics Anonymous into psychological terms,taking particular care to explain the crucial notion of "loss ofcontrol." Perhaps the most surprising element of Dr. Brown's modelis her emphasis on the triadic therapeutic relationship in whichtherapist, patient, and AA counselor work in partnership to ensureongoing recovery. Once considered a radical departure from the conventional wisdom,Treating the Alcoholic offers a now-proven approach that enablespsychiatrists, psychologists, social workers, alcoholismcounselors, and other mental health professionals to understand thedynamics of alcoholism and make profound contributions to therecovery process.

Book excerpt: From the President ofthe Research Society onAlcoholism - On behalf of the Research Society on Alcoholism I welcome the important contri bution that Volume 15 of this excellent series on Recent Developments in Alcoh- ism brings to our field. It is not enough for our scientists to develop effective and efficient methods to identify and treat alcohol abuse and alcohol dependence; the availability of these services is often limited and it is certainly nonexistent for the early problem drinker. In nineteen outstanding chapters, Volume 15 deals with organizational issues concerning access to and delivery of substance abuse treatment and the role of managed care. Several chapters deal with economic issues, cost-benefits, and - nancing of these services. Lastly, five address recent treatment outcome studies. Thus, this volume will be of great value to both scientists and practitioners. The Editor and Associate Editors are congratulated for this conceptual and organi- tional accomplishment.
