Product Description
And acceptance is the answer to all my problems... A.A. members know of Dr. Paul's wisdom through the often-quoted passage from his story in A.A.'s Big Book, Alcoholics Anonymous. Dr. Paul continues sharing his astute insight and gentle humor with discussions of the physical, mental, emotional, interpersonal and spiritual aspects of sobriety.

Just led a men's Al-Anon meeting... ( tantric1995 )
... centered on Paul O's book.
If I could only keep one of all the books I've read on sobriety, growth, and maturity, this would be it. Writing at the age of 82, Dr. Paul shares a lifetime's worth of hard-won lessons in simple strong prose. His candor about wrestling with his own faults helps me see him as a flawed but determined fellow traveler, instead of some perfect guru.
Dr. Paul describes the relationship of anger, emotional independence, emotional sobriety and daily serenity. He provides various techniques to become aware of the nature of our anger and then to develop our emotional independence.
Reading this book is like sitting down with an old friend whom you know and respect and whose advice you listen to.
I had half a dozen men tell me after the meeting they wanted to get their own copy. I recommend it to you, too.

Timeless Classic ( seagirl617 )
Dr. Paul (Doctor, Alcoholic, Addict) expands on his theme of "Acceptance is the answer to all my problems today." Beautiful! Dr. Paul was quite funny - so if that type of approach to emotional healing appeals to you, this is a must have for your recovery library!

Great Recovery Book
Could not read this book fast enough. Dr. Paul O. has such a way with words. I would highly recommend to anyone who can't seem to stop allowing other people to rent space in their brain.

Wisdom of the ages
This book condenses a lot of AA and Al-Anon thought into a few fast-reading pages. It contains many handy tools and techniques for managing difficult emotions and letting go of the need to control others.
I don't believe it's just for people in AA and Al-Anon. The wisdom in its pages is universal, although the constant references to AA and Al-Anon might put off an average reader.
I want to share this book with many people, to give them a taste of what serenity -- emotional independence -- feels like.
I highly recommend the book as a companion text to other program literature. It does not replace the Big Book or Paths to Recovery, but it condenses and clarifies a lot of age-old wisdom in a few easy-to-read pages.
