HarperCollins Publishers Inc The Drop How the Most Addictive Sport Can Help Us
Book SynopsisTrade Review“This book is brilliant. You’ve never seen the gorgonian loops and layers of addiction illuminated so clearly and originally.” — WILLIAM FINNEGAN, New York Times bestselling and Pulitzer Prize–winning author of Barbarian Days “Thad Ziolkowski explores the scientific and spiritual depths of the relationship between addiction and surfing—a sport that’s often portrayed as shallow, but in truth is anything but. As in the ocean itself, the sunlit waves coexist with the profound, and darker, layers beneath. The stories Ziolkowski tells—both his own and those of other surfers—are testaments to how there is much to be learned in the deeper waters, but only if you make it back to the surface. The Drop is a searingly personal, timely, and beautifully written book.” — SUSAN CASEY, bestselling author of The Wave “I can’t even swim in the ocean without some dread and fear, so surfing is unfathomable to me; with drugs (and their delights and horrors) I’m somewhat more familiar. Thad Ziolkowski has masterfully woven these two subjects together with his own singular but familiar American dude’s story. The Drop is a frank, fascinating, strange, wise, beautiful book.” — KURT ANDERSEN, New York Times bestselling author of Evil Geniuses “In The Drop, both a vivid personal memoir and a thoughtful exploration of compulsive behavior, Thad Ziolkowski finds an unlikely but sensible commonality between the drives underlying the fervor of surfing and the siren call of addictions. He recognizes the traumatic bases of both yet points to how the sport can ultimately be a force for healing.” — GABOR MATÉ, M.D., author of In the Realm of Hungry Ghosts “A poetic memoir of addiction, but also a beautiful reflection on the lure of surfing, which (as practitioners know) can be addictive. Ziolkowski examines the seedy, tweaky underside of the surf world as well as its logical upshot: surfing as a natural hook, which can show an addict the way back to sanity and light.” — MICHAEL SCOTT MOORE, author of The Desert and the Sea “What does a surfer do after riding a twenty-five-foot wave, or winning a world title, or getting barreled at Pipeline for a decade? Ah, solving that question—to paraphrase Philip Larkin—brings the rehab staff and the EMT crew running over the beaches in their long white coats. Through a brilliant plumbing of surfing’s dark side, Ziolkowski holds a light up to the bodies taken by addiction, while also showing a way out that exists within surfing itself.” — JAMIE BRISICK, author of Becoming Westerly and Have Board, Will Travel "Intimate take on the subject...vivid writing and evocative insights about the dopamine rush that the sport and drugs share." — Publishers Weekly "Thad Ziolkowski's ambitious new pseudo-memoir is ostensibly a book about surfing, and on a sentence level it contains some truly magical writing in the vein of Barbarian Days…But it's also an addiction memoir that isn't afraid to explore the liminal spaces where the endorphin rush of the sport meets our darker compulsions. In less capable hands the wheels would squeak right off. But when Ziolkowski is on, it's hard not to feel what he's feeling. It's a science book about the things we tether ourselves to, made spiritual." — GQ

She thought he looked sick and needed to see a doctor, and indeed, he told her he had been diagnosed with an autoimmune disorder. Yet in many ways, Peter seemed to have it all: a beautiful house by the beach, expensive cars, and other luxuries that came with an affluent life.

Berrett-Koehler Publishers Your Happiness Was Hacked: Why Tech Is Winning
Book Synopsis"Technology is a great servant but a terrible master. This is the most important book ever written about one of the most significant aspects of our lives--the consequences of our addiction to online technology and how we can liberate ourselves and our children from it."--Dean Ornish, M.D. Founder & President, Preventive Medicine Research Institute, Clinical Professor of Medicine, UCSF, Author, The SpectrumTechnology: your master, or your friend? Do you feel ruled by your smartphone and enslaved by your e-mail or social-network activities? Digital technology is making us miserable, say bestselling authors and former tech executives Vivek Wadhwa and Alex Salkever. We''ve become a tribe of tech addicts--and it''s not entirely our fault. Taking advantage of vulnerabilities in human brain function, tech companies entice us to overdose on technology interaction. This damages our lives, work, families, and friendships. Swipe-driven dating apps train us to evaluate people like products, diminishing our relationships. At work, we e-mail on average 77 times a day, ruining our concentration. At home, light from our screens is contributing to epidemic sleep deprivation. But we can reclaim our lives without dismissing technology. The authors explain how to avoid getting hooked on tech and how to define and control the roles that tech is playing and could play in our lives. And they provide a guide to technological and personal tools for regaining control. This readable book turns personal observation into a handy action guide to adapting to our new reality of omnipresent technology.

John Wiley and Sons Ltd Addiction Reviews: Craving, Designer Drugs,
Book SynopsisThe fourth volume of this series features reviews that cover a range of subjects, with authorship from the United States and European Union. The likely inclusion of craving in the DSMV criteria for addiction confers special timeliness on the paper from Stephen Tiffany (“Update on Craving”). We can now look back on addiction therapeutics, in general, and on a clinically, and financially successful anti-addiction medication buprenorphine in the paper from Nancy Campbell and Anne Lovell. Marcus Munafo and colleagues provide an important emphasis on the ways socioeconomic status interacts with a common addiction, smoking. F. Ivy Caroll and colleagues provide an excellent update on the medicinal chemistry of new designer drugs, tracing designed drugs from the streets to the papers in which their syntheses and properties were described. The often-underappreciated role of ultrastructural information in defining circuits important for addiction is reviewed by longtime leaders in this field, Mariscella Morales and Virginia Pickel. The important continuing contributions of smoking comorbidities are reviewed by Tony George and colleagues, and a framework for mouse models for smoking cessation advanced in the review by Hall, Uhl, and colleagues.

Seven Stories Press,U.S. Bobby's Book
Book SynopsisBobby Powers is a real life character out of a Nelson Algren or Hubert Selby novel, only he somehow survived and figured out since the only way left to go was up, he might as well try it.—Barry Gifford In 1998, at the very moment that a publisher had approached Bruce Davidson about a book of his 1959 Brooklyn Gang photographs, former gang leader Bobby Powers unexpectedly telephoned the Davidsons. Over the next decade, Emily Davidson maintained an ongoing conversation with Powers in order to bring to light his struggle to overcome his drug-ridden and violent past and to inspire others with his example.Through the words and reflections of the former drug addict and petty criminal, this book relates the long, agonizing journey from youthful urban violence and despair to the life of a committed and generous professional. Beginning in a working-class Brooklyn neighborhood in the mid 1950s where alcohol abuse and poverty were rampant, Bobby Powers went from being an illiterate gang leader and notorious drug dealer to a destroyed individual who had lost everything, including family members, close friends, and himself, all presented in his own words and in grim detail in this book. At a critical turning point in his life, recognizing the threat of his behaviors to survival, he entered detox and embarked on the arduous path to recovery and self-understanding. This process involved not only acknowledging and coming to terms with the injuries he had inflicted on his children and others, but also asking for their forgiveness.Having achieved a new way of life as a responsible and caring adult, Bobby Powers is today, at 69, a nationally respected drug addiction counselor who has aided a wide spectrum of people, including former gang members. His story represents a brutal and inspiring lesson in human frailty, degradation, and transformation.

Other Press LLC Nicotine: A Love Story Up in Smoke
Book SynopsisNAMED A BEST BOOK OF THE YEAR BY THE ECONOMISTBy turns philosophical and darkly comic, an ex-smoker’s meditation on the nature and consequences of his nearly lifelong addiction.Written with the passion of an obsessive, Nicotine addresses a lifelong addiction, from the thrill of the first drag to the perennial last last cigarette. Reflecting on his experiences as a smoker from a young age, Gregor Hens investigates the irreversible effects of nicotine on thought and patterns of behavior. He extends the conversation with other smokers to meditations on Mark Twain and Italo Svevo, the nature of habit, and the validity of hypnosis. With comic insight and meticulous precision, Hens deconstructs every facet of dependency, offering a brilliant analysis of the psychopathology of addiction.This is a book about the physical, emotional, and psychological power of nicotine as not only an addictive drug, but also a gateway to memory, a long trail of streetlights in the rearview mirror of a smoker’s life. Cigarettes are sometimes a solace, sometimes a weakness, but always a witness and companion.This is a meditation, an ode, and a eulogy, one that will be passed hand-to-hand between close friends.

Addicus Books The Addiction Battle: Three Tools to End It Now
Book SynopsisIs every day a challenge as you wage your personal battle against addiction? If you’ve fallen into the addiction trap, you are not alone. It is estimated that one out of ten Americans is struggling with addiction. Author Timothy Wulff, M.S.W., is an addiction therapist who has spent more than a decade successfully treating individuals addicted to drugs and alcohol. To identify the source of addiction, Wulff focuses on beliefs about one’s self that develop early in life and that eventually obscure the strong and positive true self, increasing susceptibility to addiction. In The Addiction Battle, Wulff will help you discover where your greatest strengths are buried and teach you how to use their hidden power to overcome addiction. Wulff will teach you how to redefine the terms anger, selfishness, and troublemaking, and make them key tools in shaping your actions from a new healthy perspective: • Anger—It’s a powerful emotion that can be used constructively to protect yourself. • Selfishness—Healthy selfishness is good self-care. Without it, addiction continues. • Troublemaking—the opposite of pleasing others, troublemaking helps you stand up for your own feelings, needs, and desires. Learning to use these tools, which are already part of you, will enable you to reclaim these inner strengths. Through the book’s practical and sensitive pages, Wulff gives you a way to begin your life anew and triumph over addiction.
