Out interest, how come he doesn't own it? Since he is the author doesn't he retain all rights to the copy?
WantToHeal, if you watch one of the three videos of Jack Trimpey on YouTube (I cannot link directly to it, I don't think) he mentions how RR used to use cognitive psychology. He says something along the lines of: RR used to use cognitive psychology which breeds self-accepting drunks and junkies—and they're the worst kind of all.
If you hear Jack talking in later years he refers to the Small Book as the albatross around his neck.
If you Google (include quotation marks)…
site:blogtalkradio.com "Jack Trimpey on Rational Recovery"
…you will find a radio interview with Jack in which he talks to someone who 'recovered' using the Small Book. You will see quite clearly in his dialogue with the caller why he does not recommend you use the Small Book. As TU mentioned, RR:TNC has superseded this.
