Stanton Peele has been a cutting-edge figure in the addiction field for four decades since the publication of Love and Addiction in 1975. He has been a leader in opening up the field to an experiential, culturally and environmentally sensitive understanding of addiction and to practical, life-management approaches to treatment, harm reduction, and self-help. Along the way, Stanton has written 12 books (including The Meaning of Addiction, Diseasing of America, The Truth About Addiction and Recovery, 7 Tools to Beat Addiction, and Addiction-Proof Your Child) and 250 professional articles, won numerous awards (including from the Journal of Studies on Alcohol and Drugs and the Drug Policy Alliance—the leading drug policy reform organization in America), and created the Life Process Program for addiction treatment, which continues to be utilized worldwide. His latest book, Recover! An Empowering Program to Help You Stop Thinking Like an Addict and Reclaim Your Life, (Da Capo, 2014), written with Ilse Thompson, incorporates mindfulness and meditation techniques into a comprehensive self-help program. Stanton also lectures on addiction around the world and has blogged as an addiction expert for The Fix (http://www.thefix.com/tags/stanton-peele), Psychology Today (http://www.psychologytoday.com/blog/addiction-in-society), Reason (http://reason.com/people/stanton-peele/all), Rehabs.com (http://www.rehabs.com/author/stanton-peele/), Substance.com (www.substance.com/author/stanton-peele/), and The Huffington Post (http://www.huffingtonpost.com/stanton-peele/). He was named the best addiction blogger by All Treatment and one of the ten most influential figures in the addiction field by The Fix.
