Foreword by Robert Coles. The author, a clinical psychologist, tells the dramatic stories of indigent individuals suffering from the most sever forms of alcoholism and drug addiction. He details how they fell into the depths of addiction, and explores with them their efforts to battle despair and find meaning in their lives. Representing the full spectrum of American life, these tragic histories of a millionaire businessman, a former major league baseball player, a Vietnam War veteran, a gay convict, and others are painful examples of how addiction manifests itself in every corner of society.
