Addiction

Learn how to conquer addiction by addressing every area of life it affects. This integrated approach offers real healing from psychological, social, physical, and spiritual perspectives.

Addiction: An Integrative Reflection brings together four key perspectives for dealing with addiction: the biological, psychological, social, and spiritual domains. By recognizing how each of these areas affects our habits and hangups, we can develop better strategies for kicking this common affliction to the curb.

Addiction doesn't recognize the boundaries of socioeconomic status, education level, religious background, age, gender, race, or ethnicity. It can strike anyone, at any time. That's why it's important to be aware of how addiction operates, including the risk factors and causes of the condition.

Author Valentino Gonzales brings up-to-date research on biological science, psychology, and sociology to tackle this challenging topic. In addition, the book addresses the importance of the spiritual in understanding addiction, covering how spiritual bondage, spiritual blindness, isolation, and idolatry affect the heart.

With clear examples, statistics, and insight, Gonzales proposes ways that recovery programs and individuals can integrate the four domains into effective model for healing. For educators, church leaders, mental health professionals, and anyone who wishes to understand addiction more thoroughly, this book is a must-read.
