Don't put him on a pedestal!
I love this book and I love Chuck C.'s program, but remember; he is an alchoholic trying to save his own neck by sharing his experience ! Forutunately, he has a great program and wonderful insight, especially about business and getting what is "ours." I've bought this book several times, loaned it out again and again, sometimes losing it....but that is okay. I'll keep buying it because it is one of those I can read over and over. Chuck C. did not write this book. It is just transcriptions from him speaking at meetings, so it reads that way. I tried listening to the tapes, but didn't like them as much. (I read fast, Chuck talks slow - but it was great just to hear him giggle.) A wonderful example of an alcholic whose experience helps many people, even after his passing! He is very inspiring and has a lot to pass on.

Nothing better than this
Chuck C. was one of the early leaders of AA in Southern California. He was one of the few people who came to AA fully surrendered to the will of God and then never took it back. Some of the things you will learn in this book will seriously change your life - most especially in your relations in the business world. There are spiritual truths here that transcend any of the more common and bland twelve step guides available. What is amazing is that it was not really planned as a book at all - it's a transcription of a series of talks Chuck made at a men's retreat. For that reason, it isn't highly polished or edited. Sincerely recommended for all who want to take their spiritual growth to the next level.

Best Book I've ever read
I read this when I was about 6 months sober. Now at almost 11 years sober, its still my most favorite book. It made me smile, cry and most of all have hope that this sobriety thing really can work. Read it, you've got nothing to lose and a life to gain.
