Good evening folks, This week we will be covering Chapter 3 - More About Alcoholism . In case you ever get the odd notion that all the knowledge we've acquired about alcoholism, on its own, will be sufficient to keep you from that next drink, this chapter aims to show beyond a reasonable doubt that ... "the actual or potential alcoholic, with hardly an exception, will be absolutely unable to stop drinking on the basis of self-knowledge." (p39). Now that's good information to keep in mind!!! See everyone soon.

This blog is a compilation of commentaries about AA, alcoholism, sobriety and recovery. They were created as part of a weekly email series I send out to the AA Wed Night Riverside Men's Group in EscazĂș, San JosĂ©, Costa Rica. We are a Men's Big Book and AA-related literature study group with the aim of expanding our knowledge and understanding of the principles set forth by the book Alcoholics Anonymous.
