THE POWER OF MANY VOICES. ONE MISSION.
Most books on addiction are written from a single point of view.
The Addiction & Recovery Handbook is different.
Jack Alan Levine assembled an extraordinary team of doctors, psychologists, counselors, treatment professionals, ministry leaders, recovery advocates, rehabilitation center owners, and individuals in long-term recovery to share what has truly worked in helping people overcome addiction. Each contributor wrote independently from their own area of expertise and personal experience, creating one of the most comprehensive recovery resources available.
Rather than promoting a single method, this handbook presents multiple evidence-informed and experience-based perspectives, allowing readers, families, counselors, and ministry leaders to better understand the many paths to lasting recovery. Throughout the book, common themes of hope, healing, accountability, and transformation naturally emerge—even though each author wrote from a unique viewpoint.
Whether you're seeking recovery, supporting a loved one, serving in ministry, or working in addiction treatment, this handbook equips you with practical wisdom from some of the most respected voices in the recovery community.
"Recovery isn't one voice—it's a community of experience, expertise, and hope."
