Originally published in 1939, when A.A. membership numered about one hundred, " Alcoholis Anonymous " has steadily grown in readership.
By the time the second edition appeared in 1955, membership had reached over 150.000, and the " Big Book ", A.A. members' fond title for their basic text, had reached a distribution of more than 300.000.
At the time of the third edition, in March 1976, the worldwide membership of A.A. was estimated at 1.000.000 or more.
Copies of " Alcoholics Anonymous " in ciculation exeeded 1.450.000.
The basic text, pages 1 - 164, which had been the foundation of recovery for so many alcoholics remained, and still remains, unchanged.
The section of personal stories was updated with new stories in the second and third editions in order to reflect the wider age range and different life experiences of alcoholics over the years since 1935, when Bill W. met Dr. Bob and the message of A.A. was born.
As Bill W. wrote in a 1935 letter: " The story section of the Big Book is far more important than most of us think.
It is our principal means of identifying with the reader outside A.A.; it is the written equivalent of hearing speakers at an A.A. meeting: it is our show windof of results ".
Continuing this policy, the fourth edition includes twenty-four new stories that provide contemporary sharing for newcomers seeking recovery from alcoholism in A.A. during the early years of the 21st century.
Sixteen stories are retained from the third edition, including the " Pioneers of A.A. " section, which helps the reader remain linked to A.A.'s historic roots, and shows how early members applied this simple but profound program that helps alcoholics get sober today.
Approximately 21 million copies of the first three editions of " Alcoholics Anonymous " have been distributed.
It is expected that the new fourth edition will play its part in passing on A.A.'s basic message of recovery.
This fourth edition has been approved by the General Service Conference of Alcoholics Anonymous, in the hope that many more may be led toward recovery by reading its explanation of the A.A. program and its varied examples of personal experiences which demonstrate that the A.A. program works.
