It is a book on addictions. It is primarily substance abuse. I can relate to it in terms of my food addiction. Have you not heard of the book Gwen?

I had heard of it before. Maybe it isnt familiar to you because it is by a Canadian doctor A British Columbia doctor to be more specific. He spent years working with addicts on Vancouver's East Side.

Maybe so! It's also not a genre that I keep up with - I'm only a sporadic reader of non-fiction.
