I work with people and their whanau/families on a daily basis who have, have had or have recovered from Alcohol and Other Drug issues. The damage caused by AOD over use and abuse is enormous and has ongoing negative effects on our society and future generations mainly due to observation and learned behaviours. I really like the approach that this book takes in not attempting to stop drinking totally. It instead explains and coaches how to manage and cope with consuming alcohol so that the damaging effects may be minimised. This is a very useful supportive book for 'drinkers' and their families. It is a book that is very easy to read and understand. I really like the quotes, sayings and tools contained therein. This book is much bigger than just the social and familial issues with alcohol - It is in a very big way about 'Your Beautiful Mind'. It fits very well with my style of practice and that is to start with the basics and move onwards and upwards from there. I see in the book an AHA (awakening, honesty, action) moment in the book. I really get the reference to wisdom (The smart person knows what to say, the wise person knows when to say it) and the associated learning. I will be recommending this 'must read' book to my clients and their whanau/families and anybody else who will listen. Philipe Eyton, Counsellor, Life and Leadership Coach, BSocP, NZAC Your book was the first one I read when I was fighting alcoholism. Reading helped me a lot. Knowledge is real power. Your Beautiful Mind inspired me to think beyond my alcoholic lifestyle, which wasn't possible before and helped to transform my mind completely. Cassandra motivated me to take up my passions---reading, writing, stock market analysis--as fruitful additions rather than following self-destructive addictions like alcohol, nicotine, and drugs. Today, I can enjoy my life more and feels like I have been freed from a prison--a self-created prison of addictive behaviour. Justin Raj, Financial Trader and Journalist I cold-turkey stopped imbibing alcohol and I've gained twenty years in energy. We all know we don't drink a lot but what an insidious thing nightly alcohol is. Melinda Hammond, Author
