Written by addicts, for addicts, and about addicts, this is the hardcover edition of the book that sets forth the spiritual principles of Narcotics Anonymous that hundreds of thousands of addicts have used in recovery. Just as with alcoholism, there is no "cure" for narcotic addiction, but recovery is possible through a program adapted from the Twelve Steps and Twelve Traditions of Alcoholics Anonymous. Intended as a complete textbook for every addict seeking recovery, Narcotics Anonymous describes the NA program and how it works. It includes the NA Twelve Steps and Twelve Traditions, as well as many personal stories of people who have found freedom from addiction through Narcotics Anonymous. Review: Good book - Great book to read if you need more help understanding narcotics Review: It's a the softcover Basic Text . . . - So the Basic Text is the Basic Text. But when doing lit studies it's easier to follow along with your group when everyone is using the same format of the book. I have this in the paperback and digital versions. Best investment I've made in my recovery in terms of reading material. I'm always prepared and my digital version has my highlighting in one color and my group highlighting in another. Just my thoughts.

Best book ever written on addiction & recovery
The basic text of NA is the best book ever written on addiction and recovery. It is the gold standard, written by addicts for addicts. It details a profound and unparalleled understanding of The 12 Steps and the spiritual principles that fuel the miracle that an addict, ANY ADDICT, can stop using, lose the desire to use drugs, and find a new way of life. This book has been an essential part of my own journey on the road to recovery. Recommended without a single reservation. Flawless.

What I needed
This basic text book was great quality for the most part. It had minimal wear but had people’s names and some phone numbers wrote in it which were quite personal. I had to take white out and wipe them all out, so no one else saw them that didn’t need to see them. It still had the dust jacket which is in pretty good shape overall, I’m impressed.

Excellent read
Great read and good insights to help on anyone's journey back from the depths of hell. If you also just want to understand more this is a good book to read as well. As addictions effect the whole family.

A standard work for drug addicts.
This is the standard NA book on Twelve Step recovery for people addicted to chemicals. In my view it is a better text in mny ways from the AA 'Big Book' because it is more up-to-date and does not have Bill W's excellent but dated writing style of some seventy-odd years ago, so it is better suited to younger people today.

Premier livre sur le rétablissement
Ce livre a sauvé ma vie. Ce livre parle du rétablissement possible pour une personne souffrant de la maladie de l'addiction. C'est un livre parlant de rétablissement et non de méthodes plus ou moins sulfureuses ou à la mode pour s'en mettre plein les poches écrit par quelques psychiatres en mal de publicité facile.
