Women and Problem Gambling by Liz Karter
This book explores how troubled lives and damaging relationships lead to the trap of problem gambling, the anxiety whilst locked inside, and then offers realistic hope of a way out."The book is logical and self-explanatory, covering the role of the gambling industry - the role of society
- women's relationships with others and themselves - and what hitting rock bottom is...Excellent short and precise case studies take readers in to the person's experience. Karter shares her experiences and work. She explores assessing reality, creating a therapeutic experience, ambivalence and relapse prevention. It is accurate and precise, while offering opportunity for reflection. I recommend it to addiction counsellors for their library of reference material. Patients will also relate to so much of it that it will motivate them to recovery."- Peter J Davies, Addiction Today, 2013
