This book, published by Jessica Kingsley Publishers (ISBN 1-85302-817-7), is part of a series on Therapeutic Communities edited by Rex Haigh and Jan Lees. Published in 2001, the book provides a good overview of the history of the way that Therapeutic Communities have addressed the treatment of substance misuse.

The book contains a range of contributions from around the world, and includes two chapters specifically from the Ley Community. One of the Ley Community chapters considers the experience of ex-residents working as staff members within a therapeutic community, whilst the other chapter describes the resettlement programme that commenced at the Ley Community in 1999.
