What sets She Bets Her Life apart is Mary Sojourner's ability to take both an objective and a deeply personal look at the psychological and physiological impact of gambling addiction on women. Having lived it, Sojourner is brutally forthcoming, and with her penchant for research and fact-finding, the narrative is teeming with important information and resources to help steer women with gambling addictions (and their loved ones) toward help and healing.

There is twelve-step material in this book which I personally appreciate, but I know other people are immediately turned off by it. Again, though, there's still a lot of good material whether that bugs you or not. I don't think the entire book and all of the information is "tainted" or disregardable because of it. The author doesn't make it sound like a 12-step program can cure you or that there aren't other ways of approaching the problem(s). These stories are personal but presented with lots of informative context.

If you can find a better, more helpful book(s) about this let me know in comments, please. I'm guessing this is among the top, if not the best, current (and readable) books focusing on women who are addicted to gambling and some of what usually makes them different from men. Other than a couple of episodes of Intervention (and/or maybe one of those women's channel secret lives shows) these kinds of stories (and potential ways to cope with them) haven't been given nearly enough exposure. WELL WORTH THE MONEY!

Review: I have been a gambler since I was 10 (nearly 50 years). This book was the turning point in my addiction, given to me by my counselor. I could not understand why I couldn't control myself or "beat" this monkey growing on my back. This book not only gives personal account of the hell a gambling addict goes through but in my case laid out exactly why I will never be able to control myself once I step into a casino. There is a physical (not just psycological) reason for some of us to go beyond boundaries and over the edge into madness. I was on the brink of loosing everything (including my mind), was about to commit myself to an institution, but found help thru a State program and began my way back to sanity and recovery. This book was the last step I needed to completely understand my addiction and return from the edge of the void. I have been casino free now for 7 months! I highly recommend this to all women on the verge of loosing everything they've worked for all their lives.

Review: Every therapist who works with clients with any type of addiction, obsession or compulsion should read this book. Every person with any type of addiction, obsession or compulsion (and might that not be most of us) should also read this book. It's full of useful and factual information, plus offers an honest perspective of the day-to-day ups and downs of coming to grips with, accepting, and overcoming a problem that often feels so good! For those who struggle, you never know when someone else's nugget of wisdom and personal perspective will strike THE chord that sends you off in a direction of more healthful choices. Mary Sojourner's odyssey is filled with such nuggets. Buy it for yourself. Buy it for those you love.

Review: This powerful, powerful story really touched me. I love this book. I am a compulsive gambler and I NEED this book. I read it regularly. Mary is a gifted writer and her personal emotions come across in her writing. I feel like I know her, everytime I read it. It has helped me with my gambling addiction too, because of her insights and the important information she has packed into the book. It's a fave. and I have given it to several people.

Review: This book combines the theory of addiction to gambling for women as well as the grass roots experience of getting lost in gambling. It is difficult to find a book that combines both. I found the book thought-provoking as well as inspiring. I highly recommend this book for therapists as well as gamblers.

Review: If you have someone in your family that has a gambling addiction - a must read. It covers all aspects of this addiction, first person stories as well as the science of addiction and the specifics of how gambling affects the brain. The information about casinos and how all the triggers of being in, and staying at a casino are no accident, interesting information.
