There are millions of people in the UK who are affected by addiction, either through their own experiences or those of family and friends. The Addicted Mind is for all readers interested in compelling life-stories - from a doctor who was there.
The Addicted Mind is both a searing exploration of the psychological distress caused by addiction, and a celebration of the resilience of the human spirit.
The book is structured through the individual stories of some of the thousands of patients Henrietta Bowden-Jones has treated. A psychiatrist specialising in the treatment of the most extreme forms of addiction, Henrietta takes the reader into her clinics as she works to help her patients rebuild their lives.
Henrietta Bowden-Jones is a warm, wise and compassionate narrator. Despite encountering her patients' suffering on a daily basis, her outlook is optimistic. She is driven by her faith in 'the amazing ability of the human mind to be healed'. Her career, with its dedication to helping others and expanding the boundaries of medical understanding, is also an inspiration.
