Bear Jack Gebhardt has been publishing books, articles, essays, stories and poems for over thirty years. How to Stop Smoking in Fifteen Easy Years is the culmination of a lifetime's work studying and working as a "foot soldier" in the addictions field. In the 1970's he helped returning Vietnam Veterans and street people untangle from a wide variety of addictions, and for the last twenty years has focused on helping smokers dissolve the smoking habit. He has also been deeply involved in contemporary spiritual movements, particularly Christian-Buddhist, advaita, non-duality and related philosophies. How to Stop Smoking in Fifteen Easy Years was written to be easily accessible and practical to all readers, regardless of their training or lack of training in any particular field, or their spiritual or religious inclinations. Gebhardt has two grown children and lives in the foothills of Colorado with his artist wife Suzanne Summers Gebhardt. See less
