Culture of Recovery Making Sense of the Self-Help Movement in Women's Lives

"...convincingly describes the centrality of 12-step thinking to today's talk shows, TV docudramas, therapy, self-help books, celebrity biographies.... Rapping's analysis should provide useful debate in feminist and mental health circles, and should be read by everyone who is wondering whether the nationwide search for the 'inner child' is bringing us any closer to social transformation."Rapping, Elayne is the author of 'Culture of Recovery Making Sense of the Self-Help Movement in Women's Lives' with ISBN 9780807027172 and ISBN 0807027170.
