Full title: Soul Recovery: 12 Keys to Healing Addiction . . . and 12 Steps for the Rest of Us–a Path to Wholeness, Serenity, and Success

Ester Nicholson relates her personal story of recovery from addiction with brutal honesty and a clear message of hope. Her program of healing is solid, and could easily be life enhancing, if not life saving, for anyone who wishes to accept a New Thought style of spirituality.

Since everything in the book that is “beyond the 12 steps” concerns that specific style of spirituality, there is little help “for the rest of us.” Still, the above strengths rate a three-star rating for an otherwise one-star book.
