Getting Sober...and Loving it: Hope and Help from Recovering Alcoholics

"Getting Sober" includes the stories of alcoholics from all walks of life - including celebrities like Gary Glitter and Jimmy Greaves. Their personal experiences combined with practical information make this a helpful book for addict and relative alike. The author, Derek Taylor, is himself a recovering alcoholic. He is married to Joan who co-authored "The Parents Safe Food Handbook" with him. SHARP is a registered charity running courses for addicts from the crypt of a London church. Its patrons include Ringo Starr, Eric Clapton and Anthony Hopkins. A percentage of the royalties from the sale of the book goes to SHARP.
