Peter Kruger is a physician. He experimented with his first cigarette at sixteen, before a field hockey game in Worcester, South Africa, and spent the next three decades discovering — first as a medical student, then as a practising doctor — that knowing better has nothing to do with getting free.
After years of willpower quits, a decade of freedom, and a ten-year detour through vaping that began with one friendly drag, he turned the tools of cognitive behavioural therapy on his own addiction and took it apart belief by belief.
He wrote Escape Nicotine for the reader he used to be: someone who had all the facts, none of the answers, and no interest in being told to try harder. He also built the Escape Nicotine app, so the method could live in the pocket where the vape used to be.
He lives in Alberta, Canada.
