The Thinking Person's Guide to Sobriety

This memoir of a high-functioning professional's recovery from alcohol abuse "combines fascinating facts with intriguing stories" (John Bradshaw, New York Times–bestselling author of Healing the Shame that Binds You).

Part autobiography, part recovery tool, this book is Bert Pluymen's story of struggle and triumph over alcohol addiction. It also contains insightful, witty, uplifting, and wryly humorous stories of the many people Pluymen met who were also searching for sobriety. This is an informative book that will shed new light on how alcohol abuse can ruin people's lives—even if they thought it could never happen to them.

"A vital tool for awakening the alcohol-abusing professional." —Dr. Frank Sadlack, Ph.D., executive director of La Hacienda Treatment Center

"Plain talk and personal experiences make Bert Pluymen's book a real guide for anyone whose life has been touched by addiction. The section on women [and alcohol] is especially good." —Ann W. Richards, former governor of Texas
