This edition presents the original first edition of the Big Book of Alcoholics Anonymous, the foundational text of the Twelve Step recovery movement. First published in 1939, the book introduced a spiritual program that has helped millions of people around the world recover from alcoholism and other forms of addiction. Written by the early members of Alcoholics Anonymous, the Big Book explains the principles that guided the recovery of its founders, Bill Wilson and Dr. Bob Smith, and outlines the Twelve Steps that became the heart of the recovery program.

The Big Book of Alcoholics Anonymous and 12-step programs across the world have helped millions of people recover from addictions, in large part because of Doctor Silkworth. This study guide focuses on "The Doctor's Opinion". Doctor Silkworth was the first in his field to look at alcoholism and drug addiction in a disease model that he called "an allergy of the body, and an obsession of the mind."
