Compulsive Gambling Case Histories

This was the first book that I ever read on the subject of compulsive gambling. That was over ten years ago, at a time when not much information was out there, and the book is still relevant today. It guides you through some very interesting case histories and the recovery of one of the authors. I liked reading all of the case histories because the subjects were from all walks of life with one common thread; their inability to stop gambling. Heavy emphasis is placed on the Gambler's Anonymous program as THE tool for recovery, but the book neither lectures nor preaches. It gives much food for thought, and left me wondering where many of the subjects are today. A valuable resource for someone interested in the topic of compulsive gambling.
