If alcoholics and addicts won't accept help until they are ready, what gets them ready? This book provides an answer in clear and concise terms. Dispelling two damaging myths - that an addict has to hit bottom and that intervention must be confrontational - the authors' proven approach puts love first and shows families, step by step, what to do next.

I found this book to be helpful. It is more for people who love a person who is currently on some form of substance. It talks about intervention, etc. I did however find some of the chapters to be useful for dealing with a person either while it's before or after they decide to quit using their "drug of choice". It taught me to be patient and show lots of "LOVE"
