BEYOND DENIAL by Patrick Caffrey addresses the problem of a 90 percent relapse rate in persons who have committed to recovery from alcoholism and other addictions. The book identifies the characterological issues which prove to be the source of relapse as well as the true cause of addiction. Addiction is defined as a learned response to pain that seeks to relieve the pain while ignoring its cause. Treating the pain while ignoring its source leaves the subject vulnerable to relapse. This approach takes us beyond the problem of denial which is the initial target of traditional treatment to the source of distress and to successful relapse prevention.
