#1 The history of Alcoholics Anonymous is a fascinating study of successful social movements and organizations. Despite the rapid cultural changes that we have experienced since 1935, A. A. has survived and grown.

#2 The 12 steps of A. A. or any other 12-step group do a few simple things well. They offer a simple program of living that will, over the long haul, help us to correct the crazy painful ways that we learned to live in this world as we were growing up.

#3 The life of executive Frank Davis was seemingly uneventful. He was a high achiever in school, and after graduating, he began a career with a large California electronics firm. But the changes in his life began to become subtle.

#4 Tina’s husband, Frank, began to have feelings of resentment toward her. He would occasionally feel a little gnawing in his stomach, and then rush into work with renewed vigor, ignoring the feelings. Eventually, Tina began to feel resentment toward Frank, and the little voice in her head kept saying, Something’s wrong. Something’s wrong.
