of alcoholics have been waiting for! An updated version of the "Big Book of Alcoholics Anonymous." This edited revision of the old, basic text is reader-friendly and carries the exact same message as the 1939 version of "Alcoholics Anonymous." It's written in a style that's friendly to readers of any gender, race, or spiritual path. Until now, Bill Wilson's 1939 book has never been edited for modern readers.

This book is for:

• Women who object to the sexist language in the original Big Book. The EZ Big Book is gender neutral.
• All partners of alcoholics, including gays and lesbians. The EZ Big Book makes no assumption about the genders or marital status of partners.
• Alcoholics at all reading levels. The language is reader-friendly and journalistic in tone.
• Readers of any faith, including agnostics. The spiritual references in the book are all-encompassing.
• Non-English speakers. Readers for whom English is a second language buy the EZ Big Book because the writing is simple and direct.
