Based on the experiences of thousands of successfully recovering men and women, "Passages Through Recovery" presents an action plan for preventing relapse - one that can help chemically dependent people understand how recovery works and what is needed to move from active addiction to sobriety. This timely revision of Terence T. Gorski's pioneering and best-selling work describes six stages of recovery from chemical dependency and offers sound advice for working through the challenges of each - challenges that can create frustration and lead to relapse.
