It seems like its a personal vendetta.

I understand it would be relevant for those whove been through that program but for me I dont really relate to it and want to get into the practical stuff. Kind of like how he says 'if you are abstinent then why attend and more aa meeting? -for me- if I dont give a crap about going to an AA program why read about it '

Gonna skip ahead I think.
I agree since I haven't had much exposure to AA (I attended two meetings... once when I was around 21 and once when I was in my late 20s) so I don't need the deprogramming.

But for someone who has been through AA, I can see it's value.

Maybe he should have added notes to his books, "If you never have been exposed to AA, feel free to jump ahead to page X".
