About the author

Barry Eitel

The year was 1981.

I had recently earned a graduate degree in social work and was subsequently thrown into a world of poverty and need.


I found that I had been quite naive about the real

causes and effects of addiction, abuse, neglect, and a world of narcissism that didn’t care about

its own.


These demands forced me to find which approaches worked best and to eliminate those

that didn’t.
