Publisher's Synopsis
Understanding Alcoholism as a Brain Disease includes an in-depth explanation of how alcoholism works inside the brain; the stages of alcoholism identified by scientific researchers; and a list of clues to your genetic vulnerability.
Written in plain English from a true medical perspective, even if you aren’t a doctor or scientist, you’ll find this book easy to read and understand.
This is the second volume in the Rethinking Drinking series that emerged out of the authors first book, A Prescription for Alcoholics-Medications for Alcoholism.
Alcoholics, care-givers and loved-ones ask, “Why does the alcoholic keep drinking or continue to return to drinking, despite all they continue to lose?’, ‘What is wrong with them?!’ Alcoholics berate themselves and question why they keep drinking when they see the damage it causes. They ask, ‘What is wrong with me?’
The answers to those agonizing questions are found in this book.
You’ll learn about alcoholism as a complex brain disease. This book will help you understand the disease in a way that provides a fresh new perspective on this devastating neurological condition
