Under the Influence
A Life-Saving Guide to the Myths and Realities of Alcoholism
Authors: James R. Milam, Ph.D. & Katherine Ketcham
Hailed as a groundbreaking classic, Under the Influence changed the way the world understands alcoholism. First published when alcoholism was widely misunderstood as a moral failing or psychological weakness, James R. Milam and Katherine Ketcham presented a bold, science-based view: alcoholism is a disease with identifiable physical causes — and it requires real treatment, not blame or shame.
Now updated with new research, resources, and insights, this revised edition continues to provide hope and clarity to millions. With an approachable style, it dispels dangerous myths, explains the progressive nature of alcoholism, and offers practical tools for recovery and support.
Inside you’ll learn:
- How to recognize the signs of alcoholism
- The progressive stages of the disease
- How to choose effective treatment programs
- Why nutrition and lifestyle changes are crucial to recovery
- Which commonly prescribed medications can harm alcoholics
- How to support lasting recovery for yourself or a loved one
