Peter Andrew Sacco, Ph.D., author of Sweet Acceptance Versus Bitter Resistance is a renowned specialist in addiction therapy. He lectures at universities; leads support groups, and makes appearances at addiction treatment facilities as well as appearing on television.

With a solid background in psychology, Dr. Andrews is able to bring clinical experience and knowledge to readers, as well as providing biblical spiritualism, and enlightenment about the Law of Attraction. The combination of all three of these techniques in short, easy to understand chapters make this book a compelling read for those struggling with addiction or those who have family members and friends with the disease.

While addiction has long been recognized as a disease, many people still discriminate against those who suffer from it, often labeling them as drunks or druggies or other derogatory terms. What they may not realize is that the negative and derogatory terms they push onto those who suffer only furthers the erosion of their self-esteem and thus perpetuates the rate at which the illness progresses.

In explaining the power of belief, positive thinking, and physiological effects of addition, Dr. Sacco opens the eyes of those who are ready to hear his multifaceted message on how to turn your mind, spirit, and body from Bitter Resistance to Sweet Acceptance. Providing lessons and practical exercises throughout the book, readers can more completely understand the meaning of each chapter and become more ready to move on to the next one.

Dr. Sacco has a succinct, yet thorough, and very compassionate manner of expressing himself using the written word. The target audience for this book should be EVERYONE. It is hard to imagine that each of us, whether we struggle personally with addiction or negative thoughts, or know someone who does, would not be able to learn and find methods to examine our own thought patterns to improve our quality of life.
