It conveys both the deepest compassion and the most encompassing and rigorous analysis that I have seen. Addiction, Attachment, Trauma, and Recovery pulls the massive, fragmented addiction literature together at last. This is a work of amazing scope.”
- Bruce K. Alexander, Professor Emeritus, Simon Fraser University

Morgan, O.J. and Jordan, M. (Eds.). (1999). Addiction and spirituality: A multidisciplinary approach. St. Louis, MO: Chalice Press.

“In our society, with its pandemic of substance and behavioral addictions, such a multidiscipline, interfaith volume will bring the gift of valuable insights to both religious and secular counselors, as well as to theoreticians of the addiction process." - Howard Clinebell Claremont School of Theology

“This is an amazingly comprehensive, in-depth treatment of a long-neglected and superficially treated topic. It does the unusual – truly considering theological and biblical issues – while not slighting clinical, therapeutic, or scientific perspectives. It should become standard reading in this new field of addiction and spirituality.” - Linda Mercadante Methodist Theological School of Ohio
