The Myth of Normal - Gabor Mate
Western countries invest billions in healthcare, yet mental illness and chronic diseases are on a seemingly unstoppable rise. So what is 'normal' when it comes to health?Over four decades of clinical experience, renowned physician and addiction expert Dr Gabor Mate has seen how health systems neglect the role that trauma exerts on our bodies and our minds. Nearly 70% of Americans are now on prescription drugs.
But, with deep compassion, he also shows us a pathway to health and healing.Filled with stories of people in the grip of illness or in the triumphant wake of recovery, this life-affirming book, co-written with his son Daniel, proves true health is possible - if we are willing to reconnect with each other and our authentic selves.Číslo vydania 1Jazyky anglickyPočet strán 562Dátum uvedenia titulu 2022-09-15Rozmery 235x155x45Hmotnosť 696gTypPaperback Medicine often fails to treat the whole person, ignoring how today's culture stresses our bodies, burdens our immune systems and undermines emotional balance.Now, in his most ambitious and urgent book yet, Dr Mate connects the dots between our personal suffering and the pressures of modern-day living - with disease as a natural reflection of a life spent growing further and further apart from our true selves.
