Millions of men in the USA are addicted to something: alcohol, drugs, sex, work, food, or gambling. Poor substitutes for comfort, self-confidence, and spirituality, all addictions have the power to destroy lives, relationships, and families. Joseph K. Nowinski suggests that addiction is the result of emotional desperation, which, as much as any craving, is responsible for addicts relapsing or trading one addiction for another. In "Hungry Hearts", Nowinski examines the phsycological processes of addiction, why men in particular are so vulnerable, and what they can do to escape the throes of addiction and the addictive tendencies within themselves.
