21 April 2004 Reviewer: A reader
I discovered Allen Carr when I read the first couple of pages of his "StopSmoking" book at a friends house. I couldn't put it down and I knew Iwould be a non-smoker by the time I finished reading the book (I bought myown copy the very next day).
Then I discovered that he had adapted his Easyway method to includealcohol and that he had released his "Control Alcohol" book. I knew I hadto read it because I was very worried that I had lost control of mydrinking.
It's written in virtually the same style as his previous books and isutterly compelling reading from start to finish. It fills you with hopeand confidence and uses the power of rational thinking to dispel the mythssurrounding alcohol. It's difficult to criticise Carr's approach or stylein any way because his message comes across so clearly. After reading thisbook you will see alcohol and people who drink it in a very different way.Alcohol has become accepted and institutionalised by society and yet it isjust as addictive as heroin or tobacco.
I stopped drinking after reading this book and I feel elated by theknowledge that I can finally get on with the rest of my life - free fromthe alcohol prison, free from destroying my health and future for the sakeof a drug that does absolutley nothing for me. Highly recommended.
