      abstract = {Since its first publication in 1939, the original "Big  Book" of Alcoholics Anonymous has reflected the initial  perception that alcoholism primarily, if not solely,  afflicts men. Over the years, we have come to recognize  that this disease does not discriminate, yet the "Bible" of  Alcoholics Anonymous has never been updated - until now. A  Simple Program offers a new translation with gender-equal  language, making it more accessible and relevant to the  modern reader. Written by a longtime member of Alcoholics  Anonymous, A Simple Program is a faithful modernization of  the "Big Book"'s complete core text. An invaluable boon for  all members of A.A. and other 12-step programs, it is also  a helpful guide for those whose loved ones are battling  addiction and for anyone interested in matters of spiritual  or mental health.},
