An effective treatment to help those with addictions Victims of drug addiction, chronic illness, and mental illness all too often are overwhelmed with the affliction called hopelessness. Oxford Houses succeed because their substance abuse treatment approach instills the most powerful medicine—hope for recovery. Rescued Lives: The Oxford House Approach to Substance Abuse provides a comprehensive thought-provoking look at just how the innovative Oxford House model inspires positive action on one of our country’s most serious problems—substance abuse. This powerful book presents the success stories of the people living in these community homes and explains just how it has worked for them. Rescued Lives: The Oxford House Approach to Substance Abuse gives an insightful review of Oxford House’s history and the development of the approach. Residents’ stories reveal the treatment process on the road to recovery, allowing readers to glimpse the path each individual must travel to gain entrance and assimilate into the House community. As the residents gain more control over themselves living substance free, the reader discovers the importance of relationships and reframing of self in the recovery process. This powerful book can provide hope to those individuals who feel they have lost themselves in alcohol, drugs, and mental illness. Foreword by substance abuse scholar Bill White. Topics in Rescued Lives: The Oxford House Approach to Substance Abuse include: • an overview of substance abuse in today’s society • a history of Oxford House to the present • substance abuse treatment approaches • the process of a resident’s entrance and assimilation • providing hope and living substance free • the nationwide expansion of Oxford Houses • recovery, and what it means to women, children, and families • criminal offenders in Oxford House • how the Oxford House model is constructed in order to help disenfranchised individuals from society • the nine Oxford House Traditions • a review of the strong evidence that Oxford House works —and why • and more! Rescued Lives: The Oxford House Approach to Substance Abuse is enlightening reading for educators and students of psychology, sociology, urban studies, education, and other courses designed to prepare students for careers in the helping professions. This book is also essential for practicing clinicians, anyone concerned with society’s problems and those impacted by substance abuse and mental illness.

For author Don C Reed, father of a paralyzed son, the California Institute for Regenerative Medicine (CIRM) is the greatest medical advance since penicillin.REVOLUTIONARY THERAPIES is Reed's third book about the $3 billion stem cell program.Voted into law in November 2004, CIRM is now running out of money.Should its funding be renewed? Thereby hangs a tale, or rather several dozen of them, for each of the book's 71 short chapters is framed by a yarn or vignette.The factual background is accurate, vetted by the scientists, but Reed's goal is clearly both entertainment and education.A favorite example is a little girl named Evie, imprisoned in a plastic bubble: her body's immune system did not work, and she would die outside. She joined a CIRM clinical trial ... Imagine how Evie's parents felt — when she got well.Some stories are comical, like 'How Stem Cell Research Saved My Car'; others surprising, like the comparison between politics and the giant crocodile Gustave; others are tragic or inspiring: but all point to this: More than 100 million Americans suffer chronic disease, causing mountains of medical debt — and the only way to reduce that expense ($3 trillion last year) — is cure.Related Link(s)

Phil, ailing and unemployed, took an orphaned fawn into his trailer and now walks the woods with the devoted stag. "I don't know what I'd do without Li'l Buck," Phil declares simply. "I guess I'd be crazy." Walt, a retired pipe fitter, says, "Animals...take your heartache away. I lost my boy to drugs and my horse saved my life--just through the therapy of riding." Don and Lillian devote their time advocating for animal rights and bringing home lost animals. According to Don, "Emotionally, it's an endorphin rush to be with [the animals]. On the metaphysical level, they give us meaning in life." With these and many other compelling, heartfelt stories, Saved, in the words of Rita Mae Brown, "proves once again that love rescues us all."

"Then, I remember. I remember how I wanted to die and God whispered in my ear. I recall how telling released me. I remember how free I am. I recall how God rescued me...I look around and see how He redeemed my life. He put all the broken pieces together and made me whole. He brought me back from the edge of despair and gave me a new song." The Rescued Life: A Story of Secrets and Shame, Hope and Healing. In her reluctant memoir, author Tamela Turbeville, recounts a life lived under the heavy burden of shame. The story is reluctant because she never wanted to tell the secret of how she was sexually abused when only a little girl. She instead hid the secret for over four decades bending under the weight of its shame. "The Rescued Life" is a difficult story to read but for some it will feel familiar. Abuse. Shame. Regret. Poor choices. Sin and destruction are always ugly. But, with God, it doesn't stay that way. God takes the ashes and returns them as beauty. Tamela's story invites you to learn how telling your secret leads to freedom. See how shedding light on shame destroys its strength. Discover how God rescues when the shame threatens to drag us under. Take heart. You, too, can find hope that healing is possible. Tamela Turbeville is a trauma survivor healed by grace. She writes so that women who suffered similar trauma, a prodigal past or live with painful secrets know they are loved and wanted. They are His beautiful masterpiece. Tamela's hope is that by telling her story and speaking about her journey, other hurting women see they too can cut the chains of shame and begin their personal healing journey. She works from her home in the woods where she finds it easier to write when surrounded by her six rescue dogs. Connect at livingoneword.com and tamelaturbeville.com.
