Meet Howard Casanova. Labeled and treated as an alcoholic thirty years ago, he has a story to tell. BEYOND AA begins with a stunning realization: the nation's premier recovery program no longer has answers for over two thirds of those sent there.Dealing with issues of childhood sexual abuse, substance abuse, divorce, and an ADD personality, Casanova eventually moved beyond AA, which AA teaches is not something people who follow the program can do. And, if AA was no longer the right fit for him, surely there were others whose needs were also not being met. Casanova shares details of his life-including the revelation that quitting drinking cold turkey hadn't necessarily been the best solution for him and many others he'd met. After all, why can't some people learn to drink in moderation instead of to excess? BEYOND AA offers a critical look at not only AA but also the entire substance abuse treatment and recovery industry. Newly married and overcoming his obstacles, Casanova shows there can be life BEYOND AA to one with PURPOSE!
