Synopsis

The Classic Guide to Recovery from Alcoholism

This no-nonsense guide to understanding and recovering from alcoholism provides new hope for alcoholics, their families, and friends.

Chalk Talks sheds new light upon the complex problems of alcoholism, which affects the mind, body, soul, and emotions. Father Martin does not preach or moralize but remains practical in discussing attitudes toward, and reasons for, alcoholism; the physiological/psychological effects; health problems; symptoms; intervention; treatment and support; and where to turn for further information and assistant.
