Stanton Peele on Addiction in the Real World

Dr. Stanton Peele has revolutionized the way we view addiction with the publication of such books as "Love and Addiction," "The Diseasing of America," "7 Tools to Beat Addiction" and "Addiction-Proof Your Child." Dr. Peele has been an outspoken critic of addiction treatment programs such as AA and 12 step programs which are based on divine revelation rather than clinical research. Dr. Peele has also long been an advocate of evidence based approaches to addiction treatment such as Harm Reduction, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and the Community Reinforcement Approach. We are most pleased and proud to bring you an interview with Dr. Peele on this our first show.
