Editorial Reviews: Product Description Addiction and Grace offers an inspiring and hope?filled vision for those who desire to explore the mystery of who and what they really are. May examines the "processes of attachment" that lead to addiction and describes the relationship between addiction and spiritual awareness. He also details the various addictions from which we can suffer, not only to substances like alcohol and drugs, but to work, sex, performance, responsibility, and intimacy. Drawing on his experience as a psychiatrist working with the chemically dependent, May emphasizes that addiction represents an attempt to assert complete control over our lives. Addiction and Grace is a compassionate and wise treatment of a topic of major concern in these most addictive of times, one that can provide a critical yet hopeful guide to a place of freedom based on contemplative spirituality.

Customer Reviews: Read 39 more reviews... Finding Grace January 6, 2009 I consider myself a man of faith, even tho flawed, fighting with guilt and shame, and often lacking in self-esteem - like many recovering addicts do. This book caught my eye as I looked around the bookstore at Franciscan University recently. It intrigued me as I often look for assurance that I am not the worst SOB that ever walked the face of the earth, and that I may have some redeeming qualities - which I know I have, I just have trouble convincing myself sometimes. (Note: the author is NOT Catholic, if that matters.) I am very glad I bought it, read it, and I now recommend it. It is extremely helpful in understanding ourselves, the tricks our minds play on us while captured by an addiction, and our "Higher Power's" grace for us. Being a veteran of a couple 12 Step Programs, my Higher Power has been God for many years. I have known about His Grace, but this book has helped me more fully accept that Grace into my life and my recovery. I plan to purchase several copies of this book to put in my church's library, and to share with my friends who I know are stuck in similar circumstances as I. IMHO, this book is a "MUST" read for any addict in recovery, (regardless of what you are recovering from - alchol, drugs, sex, etc), and for those who wish to help an addict on the recovery journey. In other words, I think anyone can grow in understanding self, and can intellectualy and Spiritually prosper by reading this book. Excellent September 5, 2008 This is an excellent book and should be read by anyone having an addiction and searching for the Lord's help to overcome it. Bravo to the author.... Helpful June 5, 2008 This book is helpful to me. I become aware of the fact that all people have addictions (I only thought this before, I have never read anything on addictions that confirmed it until this book.) Though I am not finished reading it yet, I plan to read it again to absorb every bit of help from it. GOD is GREAT and He has gifted different people with different gifts and Gerald May seems gifted in knowing the grace of GOD. You can't always trust the reviews March 30, 2008 0 out of 8 found this review helpful I guess I was hoping for a book that contained more intuitive insight instead of the simple rehashing of religious doctrine. There is more to spirituality than Judeo-Christian myth. It seems that most "Christians" believe that the only way out of addiction is through religious dogma. Addiction and Grace January 8, 2008 This is a spiritual look into the world of addiction. Religious matters do come into play. Good book for research or group discussion in church settings. Good insight into the struggle many suffer from and good for methods of self help.
