Addicted : notes from the belly of the beast

Crozier, Lorna, 1948- (author.). Lane, Patrick, (author.). Richards, David Adams, (author.). Lau, Evelyn, (author.). Newlove, John, (author.). Simmie, Lois, (author.). Woodrow, Marnie, (author.). Gzowski, Peter, (author.). Wilson, Sheri-d, (author.). Reid, Stephen, (author.).

Summary: "Is addiction a disease, a sin, a sign of hypersensitivity, a personal failing, or a unique resource for the creative mind? However it is defined, it can have devastating consequences, often shattering lives, ruining families, wrecking livelihoods, and even triggering suicide. Yet it can also be a source of inspiration. In this updated edition featuring three new essays, on addiction to marijuana, video games, and sex, leading American and Canadian writers explore their surprisingly diverse personal experiences with this complex phenomenon, and candidly reveal what happened when their compulsions took over their lives."--
