Summary

Alcohol is a drug that has achieved the ultimate illusion. It has managed to convince the western world that it isn’t a drug at all, but rather a harmless social pleasantry. A product that does none of the things that the marketing promises that it does and yet remains unchallenged for such false advertising.

A beverage that kills over 63,000 people a year and yet still remains legal in virtually every country around the world. Craig Beck is known as the Stop Drinking Expert because he helps people to see the truth about alcohol, hidden behind the smoke and mirrors of the marketing and our own self-created social conditioning.

His book Alcohol Lied to Me has topped best seller charts for many years and has been translated into several different languages."Alcohol is the ultimate wolf in sheep’s clothing, a deeply insidious and dangerous drug packaged into pretty bottles and marketed as a fun, social pleasantry by the drinks manufacturers. The western world is conditioned from birth to believe that good times and alcohol go hand in hand. In reality consuming this drug is like playing a very dangerous game of Buckaroo, the longer you keep playing the more chance you have the mule will kick and destroy your world." (Craig Beck)

In The Alcohol Illusion Craig gives away the secrets of the magician and helps you see how the drug traps you and keeps you locked in a never ending loop. Once you see how the trick is done…escape is only a matter of time. If you are worried about your drinking this audiobook can change your life!

Perfectly explained

I enjoyed Craig’s delivery and explanation of the alcohol problem. It’s a sensible way of seeing alcohol in the way it should be.. Poison.

Amazing uncovering of the lies we believe!

If you sometimes question those regular glasses of wine you have....then invest the cost of a glass and take the time to read or listen to this book.

Very interesting

I started listening to this audiobook just out of interest. I had stopped drinking for a few days and six months later I haven’t started back. Something about the book caused me to loose interest in drink and I have found that I am enjoying socialising much more as I am not constrained by depending on others for transport. When I am tempted or feel pressured to have a drink I remember that I am poisoning myself every time I have a drink. These days the non alcoholic alternatives taste much the same.

Engaging

Look for the similarities not the differences. The basics of using is here but that’s as far is the book goes.
If your looking for anything more in-depth then just the outside looking in then this book won’t do it.

fabulous

Well, I wasn't sure what to expect from this but I was rather red faced listening to it as it was talking about me. I knew what I was doing and knew it was bad but when a book describes you, then you take note. 2 bottles a day of wine was ruining me, I knew it and didn't want it, but forced myself to drink that first glass regardless. Worth a listen...

Brilliant book!

This is a must read for all and the depth of understanding the impact of drinking alcohol must be taught in schools too or even parenting workshops. Craig is a great storyteller and he explains everything to well.
Thank you
