À propos de cet audio

#1 NATIONAL BESTSELLER
NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER

“This riveting and beautifully written tale has profound implications for all of our lives, including the practice of medicine and mental health.” —Bessel van der Kolk, MD, #1 New York Times bestselling author of The Body Keeps the Score

“Wise, sophisticated, rigorous and creative: an intellectual and compassionate investigation of who we are and who we may become. Essential reading for anyone with a past and a future.” —Tara Westover, New York Times bestselling author of Educated

The Myth of Normal is a book literally everyone will be enriched by—a wise, profound and healing work that is the culmination of Dr. Maté's many years of deep and painfully accumulated wisdom.” —Johann Hari, New York Times bestselling author of Stolen Focus

“Gabor and Daniel Maté have delivered a book in which readers can seek refuge and solace during moments of profound personal and social crisis. The Myth of Normal is an essential compass during disorienting times.” —Esther Perel, psychotherapist, author, and host of Where Should We Begin

From our most trusted and compassionate authority on stress, trauma, and mental well-being—a groundbreaking investigation into the causes of illness, a bracing critique of how our society breeds disease, and a pathway to health and healing.

Gabor Maté’s internationally bestselling books have changed the way we look at addiction and have been integral in shifting the conversations around ADHD, stress, disease, embodied trauma, and parenting. Now, in this revolutionary book, he eloquently dissects how in Western countries that pride themselves on their health care systems, chronic illness and general ill health are on the rise. So what is really “normal” when it comes to health?

For all our expertise and technological sophistication, Western medicine often fails to treat the whole person, ignoring how today’s culture stresses the body, burdens the immune system, and undermines emotional balance. In The Myth of Normal, co-written with his son Daniel, Maté brings his perspective to the great untangling of common myths about what makes us sick, connects the dots between the maladies of individuals and the declining soundness of society, and offers a compassionate guide for health and healing. The result is Maté’s most ambitious and urgent book yet.

An essential book for our times…and our future.

At last someone is saying what is so clearly evident about our current state. Let’s hope we actually listen.

Powerful

A deep dive into trauma, and how it is both affected, and is reflected in, our current cultural climate. A great listen full of engaging stories

if there was ever a handbook for life, this is it.

I have been transformed in my personal life's journey through teachers like Gabor, I'm truly grateful for the freeing truths he has learned and shares about Who amd How we are, so we can become Who and How we want to be.

Almost 5 stars

I loved the book and the stories. I really could have done without the phony accents. Irritating and distracting.

Excellent … this will challenge your idea of NORMAL

I just love Gabor Maté and his ability to challenge the status quo.

At the pinnacle of medical technology, we’re getting sicker and sicker … do you think 🤔 medical practitioners would challenge why this is happening??

Just follow the money and you will have your answer.

We live in a society that values profit over people

As a contrarian thinker, I share the views found in The Myth of Normal

Don’t accept or take what you see and hear as truth

Question what doesn’t harmonize with you

I highly recommend this book!!

Prepared to have a rude awakening
