The Big Book

The book, Alcoholics Anonymous, also known as the “Big Book,” presents the A.A. program for recovery from alcoholism. First published in 1939, its purpose was to show other alcoholics how the first 100 people got sober in A.A. Now translated into over 70 languages, the Big Book remains A.A.’s basic text.
