Addiction and Grace offers an inspiring and hope–filled vision
for those who desire to explore the mystery of who and what they
really are. May examines the "processes of attachment" that lead
to addiction and describes the relationship between addiction and
spiritual awareness. He also details the various addictions from
which we can suffer, not only to substances like alcohol and
drugs, but to work, sex, performance, responsibility, and
intimacy.

Drawing on his experience as a psychiatrist working with the
chemically dependent, May emphasizes that addiction represents an
attempt to assert complete control over our lives. Addiction and
Grace is a compassionate and wise treatment of a topic of major
concern in these most addictive of times, one that can provide a
critical yet hopeful guide to a place of freedom based on
contemplative spirituality.
