Bullsbrook, Western Australia, Australia: Veritas Publishing Co. Pty. Ltd., 1984. Rare title. Moderate cover wear. Pages fine. Bibliography. From preface: 'Holyoake', the Western Australian Institute on Alcohol and Addictions in Perth, challenged Liz Byrski's prejudices concerning drinking and alcohol dependency. "I had no idea that what I was feeling was the same fear that locks thousands of suffering people inside a horrifying wall of denial," she wrote." She found a refreshingly honest, caring atmosphere, free of judgements and criticisms, and a rare group of people who were more interested in giving than taking. Alcoholism is a massively complex subject, and this book helps people understand its nature and to see the dependents as individuals well worth assisting with their habits and shortcomings. 117 pages.
