A Woman's Journal addresses
issues that many women struggle with, especially if they are
addicted to alcohol or other drugs. Each women's path of
healing is unique, but most of us find that it involves discovering
our true selves, connecting in healthy relationships with others,
understanding our sexuality, and gaining some spiritual
connection. Recovery is like a spiral upward, away from a
life that revolves around the objects of addiction (alcohol or
other drugs, food, sex, etc), and outward into ever-widening
circles of freedom, self-knowledge, and connection with others.

treatable brain disease. It is a subject that touches all our
lives. One in four Americans has a family member who is struggling
with addiction. Currently addiction affects 22 million Americans,

Exposing as never before the societal cost of
alcohol abuse, Alcohol: Cradle to Grave offers a
compelling day-in-the-life look at the impact of alcohol on a
community—a community that, as Eric Newhouse observes, “can be
viewed as a microcosm of a national problem.” As he brings us
face-to-face with people too often reduced to statistics—those
touched by fetal alcohol syndrome, domestic abuse, drunk driving,
alcohol use at school or work—Newhouse also gives us a remarkable,
comprehensive understanding of the complexity, magnitude, and cost
of alcohol abuse. Newhouse’s book, based on his Pulitzer
Prize-winning newspaper series, is an eye-opening testament to the
insidious and seemingly inescapable reach of alcohol abuse in
America.
