They are almost the same. The
Control Alcohol is the original British version but the
Stop Drinking is the American version. I haven't read the latter but it is slightly modified for the American market.
Once you read the British version he does explain that he makes no apologies for making out you can control alcohol: the only way to control it is to not drink it at all!
It worked on me: I bought it to try and stop for a month yet it made me realise I should not drink at all.
I'm not quite sure why he felt he should change the semantics for Americans.
There is also a shortened version called
No More Hangovers. I have this on my iPhone. It's good as a reference point but the lengthier versions are much better, in my opinion.
