The book explores the often-overlooked relationship between power dynamics and addiction, asserting that both power and powerlessness significantly influence addictive behaviors. It challenges traditional perspectives by emphasizing the social and psychological factors that contribute to addiction, suggesting that understanding these elements is crucial for effective treatment and prevention strategies. Through this lens, the author seeks to broaden the discourse on addiction, integrating power analysis into the conversation.
