A well-written, wickedly funny and heartbreakingly honest, Eating My Way to Heaven is an unforgettable story about one woman’s battle with food and drug abuse, and her ultimate triumph over her addictions. In this page-turner autobiography, Martin takes the reader inside the devastating effects of sexual abuse and incest and the complicated, painful road to recovery.

It is sure to encourage all those battling with various addictions to learn how to live with purpose and discover a life of balance and peace. Eating My Way to Heaven is not a typical “diet” book, but reads like a fast-moving screenplay for a Hollywood blockbuster, with such personalities as Mickey Rooney, Farrah Fawcett and Oprah each adding their personal twist to the tale.

Product Description
This is the story of a group of men who called themselves “heroin-coffin”. It is their story of ascension from the Styxian shore of heroin addiction to a new-found heaven in a Christian brotherhood. The research study which gives rise to this story raises the question of the apparent antagonism between science and religion. Can religious faith be studied from a scientific viewpoint? Is scientific skepticism not spiritually destructive in its demand for objectivity, quantification, and repeatability? At one stage, scientific communication has been deliberately made devoid of human passion, the longings and despairs of the human condition. However, a research orientation which opens up avenues to reconcile the antagonisms is found in George Kelly’s Personal Construct Theory (1955) which also offers a theoretical framework for understanding drug addiction and drug rehabilitation.
