 This book has saved hundreds of thousands of liveslives! July 13, 2008
This book tells exactly how hundreds of thousands of real alcoholics have been saved from alcoholism. How can anyone be critical of that if it works? Only the stupid, or ignorant can criticize a book which has literally saved so many people from certain death (not to mention the thousands more they could have victimized).
It is truly a miracle, by virtue of all of the people it has saved.
True, there are thousands more who have failed the program of recovery this book details, but in that is the reason. They failed to do exactly what this book directs them to do. The book didn't fail them.
I personally know a few real alcoholics who were on their last legs when this book came into their lives. All who followed and embraced it's teachings are sober. The one who failed at it would not do what it directed him to do. He died eventually with wet brain (the non technical term for Wernicke-Korsakoff syndrome).
I implore anyone with drinking problems to get this book and seek out AA.
AA Big Book MP3 July 10, 2008
Hi there,
I strongly recommend the Audio mp3 version of the Big book: Alcoholics Anonymous: Big Book, Original Edition
Maybe the most often recommended book for any Recovery program July 3, 2008
What can be added to a book that has been around since 1939 and is still read after a quadrillion people have read it? By following the stories of the various people who have recovered from alcoholism, the "main idea" will certainly hit you. What idea? When it dawns, you'll know.
If the dawn has come already, you will find strength and hope in all of your relationships.
When you are ready for sobriety this is your bible! June 20, 2008
Every recovering Alcoholic should have a copy of this book in your home. It will be your backbone and needed structure while you take one day at a time.
You can learn from others who have walked this path before you!

Beware of size and price June 12, 2008
I am a member of A.A. and wanted to purchase a copy of the Big Book. I always shop at Amazon.com due to the great pricing and service. I just wish that Amazon would have shown me the actual product. A.A. publishes multiple sizes and covers of the Big Book and this was the only one I saw on Amazon. Unfortunately, I noticed at my next meeting that the one I was getting from Amazon was the smallest and cheapest made big book and I paid 3 times what it was worth. I kept it, but was rather annoyed with the outcome. The book is a MUST for any suffering alcoholic, or anyone who knows\lives with one. It is informative, well-written, and full of knowledge and hope. I recommend it for almost anyone.
