Harry Tiebout – Collected Writings
Overview
Dr. Harry M. Tiebout was among the first psychiatrists to frame alcoholism as a disease rather than a moral failing or criminal act. He was also one of the earliest medical professionals to recognize and endorse Alcoholics Anonymous as a groundbreaking and effective path to recovery.
This volume brings together, for the first time, some of Tiebout’s most influential and enduring works. His essays range from discussions of therapeutic strategies for alcoholics to profound explorations of surrender, a cornerstone of recovery in both psychiatry and the 12-Step approach.
These writings are not only seminal documents in the history of addiction treatment, but they also continue to resonate today with clinicians, people in recovery, and anyone seeking a deeper understanding of the complexities of alcoholism.
Key Features
- Historic Writings: Collects Dr. Tiebout’s most important papers in one accessible volume.
- Disease Model of Alcoholism: Early advocacy that shifted medical and cultural understanding.
- Integration with AA: Insight into why Tiebout embraced and promoted Alcoholics Anonymous.
- Focus on Surrender: Explains the psychological significance of humility and letting go in recovery.
- Enduring Relevance: Foundational reading for addiction professionals, students, and those in recovery communities.
Significance
Dr. Tiebout’s work helped bridge the gap between psychiatry and spiritual recovery, making it possible for Alcoholics Anonymous to gain credibility in the medical field. His insights into personality, denial, and surrender remain timeless guides for understanding the alcoholic mind and the path to healing.
