Everyone 'knows' what addiction is and what should be done for it. But as this book shows, individual experience cannot apply universally. The psychology of denial is the most devastating feature of addiction. This book offers much practical guidance - the entire emphasis of the book is on what works and why some approaches do not work.

Autorenporträt
Dr Robert Lefever is one of the leading international specialists on addiction and is a regular contributor to the media. He established the very first rehab in the UK offering treatment to patients with eating disorders, compulsive gambling, nicotine addiction and workaholism as well as alcohol or drug problems. He also identified 'Compulsive Helping' - when people do too much for others and too little for themselves - as an addictive behaviour and has pioneered its treatment. Dr Lefever has worked with over 5,000 addicts and their families in the last 25 years and, until recently, ran a busy private medical practice in South Kensington as well as the PROMIS Recovery Centre in Kent (which he established). He now uses his considerable experience to provide intensive private one-to-one care for individuals and their families. He has written a number of books on the subject of depressive illness and addictive behaviour.
