Customer Reviews

The Serenity Principle

The Serenity Principle helped me see addiction from the perspective of one afflicted with the problem, as well as how difficult the road to recovery is. It offers a fresh approach to both situations, as opposed to the tried, and often failed, feel bad in order to feel better. It is a very compassionate and humane approach. I sent copies to some of my friends.

Excellent Introduction to Psychology of Mind and addiction treatment

Joseph Bailey did a wonderful service by writing this book which clearly and efficiently discusses how to apply POM to the understanding and treatment of addiction. Highly recommended to professionals and the self-help audience. --Fred P. Gallo, Ph.D., Author of Energy Tapping and Energy Psychology

Practical Book

This is a practical spiritual book no unlike 12 steps it works. I would also encourage people to read An Encounter With A Prophet for a powerful spiritual book that get's you closer to your higher power.

Finally, a concept that really works.

Bailey has presented easy to grasp ideas that really work for the person in recovery. I have used it on both a personal and professional level and would encourage others to do the same.

Serenity

This book is excellent. You do not have to be recovering from anything for this book to have meaning. Read it several times.
