The founders of the modern recovery movement, including Bill Wilson, Bob Smith, and other early AAs, were deeply influenced by a handful of inspirational authors, from whom they received practical guidance, key insights, and concrete ideas. Their explorations of inspirational literature and useable spiritual methods gave rise to the program of spiritual self-help now practiced around the world as the twelve-step tradition.
Now, some of the core books that both inspired and were produced by the early twelve-steppers and recovery pioneers - including the first edition of the 1939 landmark "Alcoholic Anonymous" - are collected in this powerful resource, "The Recovery Bible."
Here are early writings by the visionaries of recovery. Their work retains all of its impact and life-changing power - now at the ready for study, immediate guidance, and a lifetime of re-exploration in this one volume.
"The Recovery Bible" includes:
-"Alcoholics Anonymous," the original 1939 landmark
- "The Greatest Thing in the World" by Henry Drummond
-"In Tune with the Infinite "by Ralph Waldo Trine
-"The Mental Equivalent "by Emmet Fox
- "As a Man Thinketh" by James Allen
-"The 23rd and 91st Psalms"
-"Religion that Works" by the Rev. Sam Shoemaker
-"The Varieties of Religious Experience" by William James

For unhappiness, frustration, loneliness, and other afflictions of the spirit, Dr. Emmet Fox prescribes a powerful remedy based on the life and message of Jesus. In Alter Your Life, Fox explains that these "dreary" problems are actually bad habits of mind -- habits from which we can free ourselves.

"There is no necessity for anything but success, good health,prosperity, and an abounding interest and joy in life," Fox writes

Through a series of brief meditations, Fox shows us how to exchange our bad habits of mind for the healthy ones demonstrated by Jesus. Based upon biblical texts, Alter Your Life offers a progressive, life-changing course designed for all readers, whether or not they have read a religious book before.

The Seven-Day Mental Diet is about throwing out all negativity and thinking only positive thoughts because, as he says, thoughts are things, or they become things. And if you believe that, it follows that everything in your life today is based on past thoughts you had at some point.

In clear, concise terms, Emmet Fox outlines the sevenmental laws that are the stepping stones to full realization of the inner, spiritual Power which ties within the reach of anyone who sincerely wants it and who is willing to apply the principles set forth.
