Esta obra se centra en el proceso de recuperación de las personas adictas, desde el enfoque Gestalt, a través del modelo de automodulación. Describe la adicción buscando las raíces de la recuperación, más allá de la sobriedad. Esta apuesta es una alternativa a los modelos tradicionales que solo se enfocan en el dejar de consumir.
