Addiction treatments have historically emphasized adapting individuals to a predetermined recovery model, most commonly 12-step methodology. Triple Modular Recovery argues that addiction treatment has been missing something more fundamental than a singular recovery method: its first comprehensive recovery framework. 

Ultimately, recovery is a design problem.

Drawing on more than twenty years of experience redesigning complex systems, Author Dan Shreve approaches addiction from an engineer’s perspective. Triple Modular Recovery reverses the recovery equation by presenting a comprehensive framework designed to help individuals build an effective strategy tailored to their unique needs using the best available scientific evidence.

Addressing both substance and behavioral addictions, the Triple Modular Recovery framework is intended to complement, rather than replace, existing recovery tools by helping readers identify which approaches are most likely to work for them.

Recovery methods already exist in abundance. What's been missing is a framework that explains how to choose, combine, and adaptthose methods based on an individual’s challenges, preferences, and circumstances. Rather than asking readers to adopt a single philosophy or program, Triple Modular Recovery examines the science of addiction and explores the strengths and limitations of today’s most common recovery approaches, organizing evidence-based strategies into a powerful customizable framework.

As you’ll soon learn, recovery is a twisty and often surprising ride. So strap in, because we’re doing sober shit today!
