Customer Reviews

Helpful little book!

This book is VERY useful in our group discussions and is a good tool for an individual's brief meditations. The excerpts from other writings and thoughts of one of our co-founders spawn some creative dialog and thoughts about options for living a life in recovery.

Great Companion for Recovery

This book is crammed with powerful excerpts frpom all the great AA Literature throughout the years. I know that it has helped me many of days in my own recovery and Im positive youll want to have this at your side. Highly Recommended.

Practical

Nice solid companion reader. Its brief readings are good for the newcomer to help take the program's teachings in smaller bites.Well worth adding to your library.

A pithy wide-range sampling of the thinking of AA's founder.

The book, "As Bill Sees It", delivers exactly what the title promises. This is a gleaning of the best thinking of the founder of AA. Whether you are well acquainted with AA literature, or simply a curious first time reader, this book is an excellent resource. The text is a compilation from a variety of Bill W.'s works, including letters and talks given as well as selections from the "Big Book", AA's Bible. Each selection centers around a particular topic or theme, and is succinct and though-provoking. The exhaustive index is very helpful, and guides the reader to other works in which the subjects are covered in greater detail. I recommend this book to anyone who has a desire to stop drinking, as well as to the family and friends of alcoholics who seek a greater understanding.
