Book Description Softcover, 13cms x 19cms, with card covers 118 pages Inscription on title page reads "Valerie, Best wishes, Liz". 'Holyoake', the Western Australian Institute on Alcohol and Addictions in Perth, proved all Liz Byrski's prejudices wrong ("I had no idea that what I was feeling was the same fear that locks thousands of suffering people inside a horrifying wall of denial," she wrote). She found a refreshingly honest, caring atmosphere, free of judgements and criticisms, and a rare group of people who were more interested in giving than taking. Alcoholism is a massively complex subject, and this book helps people understand the nature of alcoholism and to see alcoholics as sick people well worth saving - not a race apart.
