In this inspiring book, Gerald May describes the "processes of attachment" that lead to addiction and examines the relationship between addiction and spiritual awareness. May details the various addictions from which we suffer-not only to alcohol and drugs, but also to work, sex, performance, responsibility, and intimacy. Drawing on his experience as a psychiatrist working with the chemically dependent, May emphasizes how addiction represents an attempt to assert complete control over our lives. Addiction and Grace is a compassionate and wise treatment of this important topic, offering a critical yet hopeful guide to a place of freedom based on contemplative spirituality.May, Gerald G. is the author of 'Addiction and Grace', published 1991 under ISBN 9780060655372 and ISBN 0060655372.
