An Atheists Unofficial Guide to AA - for Newcomers

Self-help book aimed at expanding the people helped by Alcoholics Anonymous by keeping those on board who would otherwise be put off by the god stuff. It is suggested everyone should buy Everyone's an Addict or As Vince Sees It, the book with the blue cover, but no more than one of Vince's accompanying handbooks - which are this one with a yellow cover, An Atheists Unofficial Guide to AA; and Twelve Steps to Self-improvement (to accompany any program) with the pink cover; or Secular AA, the latest, more advanced edition encouraging alcoholics to construct their own individual programs, with an orange cover.

About the Author
The author is an atheist and member of alcoholics anonymous who has not had a drink for more than 17 years. While he has got the program in spite of the god references in AA's 12 steps and Big Book, he has encountered many agnostics and atheists who have been put off by them. As a freelance journalist and business analyst, he has applied his mind to outlining ways in which they, too, can adapt the AA program to their beliefs, thus bringing many more people who have a problem with alcohol into the AA fold. Hopefully some will be saved who would have perished and many will stop drinking sooner than they would have done otherwise, thus saving themselves and people around them from the harm inflicted by years of further drinking alcoholicly.
