## Customer Reviews

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Addiction is more than just an unwillingness to give up on the thing you're addicted to.
*by A***Y on 8 March 2025*

This book changed my belief about the addiction. As being a partner of a recovering drug addict, I picked up this book to understand them. Now I even care more about them and much more compassionate towards all the person who are fighting this disease, the battle with themselves.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ A refreshing & much needed perspective
*by S***N on 31 January 2025*

This is the best book I’ve come across on addiction. It explains how it is a societal problem where the addicts are further ostracised by society to avoid blame & thereby worsening their condition. It provides such a refreshing and enlightening perspective on addiction that instills empathy in your hearts for people suffering from it and also sheds light on the amount of suffering that exists in society.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Added Diction - The Addiction
*by J***I on 3 August 2024*

A great informative content, to be applied in life - self & others'. Though a lot is pointed on childhood & early environment as a reason for addiction, it must be carefully understood as not a blame on parents or others. Epigenetic (Environment) is genes expressed & Genes are environment impressed. They are to be matched & balanced. History cannot be Limited to childhood & "unknown, Unconscious" interactions are not yet known / measured - so we call them "Random". Quintessential point is to learn "detachment" & be the Author of one's life using Ownership. That is, Ownership must not lead us (that will be selfishness & craving for the fruit of our actions). We are Authors so that We happens to Life than Life happening to us. Dr. Mate has a big Heart (ofcourse not cardiomegaly:)). Recommend read for all, to know reality of life - as, all are in one way or other an addict.
