" McRobb writes perhaps a bit too much like he talks-with an in-your-face edge of draw-‘em or drive-‘em variety that not only forces a reaction from the readers, but in many cases, subtly coerces the consciousness of their real beliefs to the surface. Readers may or may not, either respond or react to his presentation of hands-on experience, but they would have a difficult time ignoring it. McRobb’s explicit approach and divulging techniques along with the thoroughness of his challenging illustrations are highly effective for the depth and quality of material presented and should prove not only extremely valuable to veterans of the recovery community, but constructively beneficial to afflicted individuals serious and sincere about their own convalescing!…”

" The strength of McRobb's work is its forthrightness, candor nontraditional presentation, and application through fruition, of proven Principles with a Traditional Recovery Program, that has long been a 'life-saving lnstitution,' and source of hope and faith for millions experiencing diminished strength and spirit. Primary weaknesses are its length and density, including language and sentence structure, that could be overly complex for the author's own stated purpose and anxious audience as well … but then again, who can begin to question the power, strength and insights within the world of legitimate recovery!...”

" lt's high time that stark thoughts and concepts of a constructive nature, along with legitimate experience, sincerity and genuine intent, were combined to be 'put on the record,' boldly put on paper and openly put to the test! Hopefully, those in-the-know will take maximum advantage of whatever they can cull from McRobb’s experience, then productively share it!…”

...WHO'S KID'N WHO...

"...Those professing active involvement in any multi-step Self Help Program who
aren't brutally honest in consistently trying to APPLY that Program's specific Principles
to their very own selves, can rest assured they'll progressively, if not arguably and
defiantly, reserve the right to be lied to... by their very own selves and those peers
living the same self-willed charade... period...!" Wiliam McRobb, A.A., B.S., M.A., Ph.D.
