A rabbi, a psychiatrist and many recovering Jewish people share their understanding of the Twelve Jewish Steps of recovery from addiction of all kinds based on conversations with each other - and with God. They present a Jewish perspective on the Twelve Steps and offer consolation, inspiration and motivation for recovery - for people of all faiths and backgrounds - through drawing on traditional and contemporary Jewish sources and by quoting from what recovering people say about their experiences. They explore why some Jews are uncomfortable with the Twelve Steps as well as how the Jewish understanding of the Twelve Steps differs from the Christian understanding of it.
