Edward Bear was born in Brooklyn and grew up in Los Angeles. Early adventures included a brief stint in minor-league baseball and too many years in construction, day labor and other dead-end jobs. A correspondence course in electronics landed him a job at Hewlett Packard, where he was employed for nearly thirty years. Mr. Bear lived in the Rocky Mountains with his wife, played a vintage Martin guitar and wrote in the time left to him by the gods and goddesses. He died in 2006.
Is an apple just an apple? Is a relapse just about returning to addiction after 12 days or 12 years of recovery? This book is a journey that takes you into the feelings and thoughts of a relapse, and what it takes to continue recovery. This fiction is more like a reality megabyte that will challenge your beliefs about recovery and addiction. -David Newcomb MC, LPC, CACIII, CCThis is the best book I have read in over 30 years in the field of alcoholism. Bear's ability to condense and simplify complex spiritual principles of recovery keeps one's heart and soul engaged on a powerful personal level. The more you depend on God, the more dependable he (she or it) becomes, is just one example of the book's recovery wisdom.The book is written in a style of relational dialogue in which all of us can see ourselves. I love this book and believe that anyone in recovery, relapsed or not, will benefit greatly from reading it. -Paul B. Walker, LCSW.
