"In the opening chapter, the author describes the deep schism that exists among scientists, physicians, and addiction treatment facilitators over the disease of alcoholism. In fact, he sadly concedes that even among many researchers and legislators in the United States, alcoholism is still regarded as a moral issue instead of a disease. In fact, the American Medical Association has recognized alcoholism as a disease since 1956."More papers on Understanding Alcoholism:
