Plain Language Big Book:
A tool for reading the book Alcoholics Anonymous
Call Intergroup at 941-425-7655 if you want us to set aside a copy for you.
Now off press in the Second Printing of the First Edition, the Plain Language Big Book is written to help readers better understand the book Alcoholics Anonymous — fondly called “the Big Book” by A.A. members.
This new book describes A.A.’s Twelve Step spiritual program in simpler language than the original Big Book, which was first published in 1939.
The Plain Language Big Book presents in simpler language:
- The ideas contained in the Big Book, Alcoholics Anonymous
- Vocabulary in the original book that may be dated or not familiar to readers
- The core content of the original Big Book without member stories – often called the “abridged edition.
