" The Myth of Normal is an astonishing achievement, epic in scope and yet profoundly down to earth and practical. I believe it will open the gates to a new time where we come to understand that our emotions, culture, bodies and spirits are not separate and wellness can only come about if we treat the whole being. I will read this book again and again."-- V (formerly Eve Ensler) , author of The Vagina Monologues and The Apology "A powerful and surprising redemptive path out of the toxic illusion of 'normalcy.' This remarkable and revolutionary book will profoundly impact the wellbeing of self, society, and our earth at a time when wisdom and compassion are essential for our common survival."-- Rev. Joan Jiko Halifax , Abbot, Upaya Zen Center, " The Myth of Normal is an astonishing achievement, epic in scope and yet profoundly down to earth and practical.

Joan Jiko Halifax , Abbot, Upaya Zen Center "As if Gabor Maté hasn't done enough already by depathologizing addiction, autoimmune diseases, and ADHD; now, in this magnum opus, he challenges us to expand our minds even further. In The Myth of Normal , he asserts that those problems, and the many other social ills that plague us, are not only related to the traumas we suffered but are also symptoms of the toxic nature of our materialistic, isolating, patriarchal, and racist culture. What's remarkable about this beautifully written book is not just that he makes that bold contention, but how well he backs it up with an amazing amount of scientific research, compelling stories of his patients, and moving disclosures from his own life. Our culture is, indeed, very sick, and I don't know of a better diagnostician of and physician for it than Gabor Maté. This book contains a prescription that, if we have the courage to follow, will heal us all."-- Richard Schwartz, PhD , creator of the Internal Family Systems Model "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 "A guide to self-awareness, social insight, and healing that is deeply personal and utterly transparent. It merits becoming this generation's The Road Less Traveled . Written with fluid, crystalline prose, profound wisdom, great humor and hard-won humility, in my two-word summation the Myth of Normal is Fiercely Tender."-- William M. Watson, S.J., D.Min. , President and Founder, Sacred Story Institute "This gripping book builds upon two key truths for our time, that everything is connected, including psychic wounds and physical illnesses, and that these are not anomalies but ordinary, even epidemic, in the society we've built. The Myth of Normal is a powerful call for change in how we live with, love, understand, treat, and think about each other, by someone ideally situated to map the terrain and to give us some valuable tools with which to navigate it."-- Rebecca Solnit, author of Men Explain Things to Me, " The Myth of Normal is an astonishing achievement, epic in scope and yet profoundly down to earth and practical.

Synopsis
The instant New York Times bestseller By the acclaimed author of In the Realm of Hungry Ghosts , a groundbreaking investigation into the causes of illness, a bracing critique of how our society breeds disease, and a pathway to health and healing. In this revolutionary book, renowned physician Gabor Maté eloquently dissects how in Western countries that pride themselves on their healthcare systems, chronic illness and general ill health are on the rise. Nearly 70 percent of Americans are on at least one prescription drug; more than half take two. In Canada, every fifth person has high blood pressure. In Europe, hypertension is diagnosed in more than 30 percent of the population. And everywhere, adolescent mental illness is on the rise. So what is really "normal" when it comes to health? Over four decades of clinical experience, Maté has come to recognize the prevailing understanding of "normal" as false, neglecting the roles that trauma and stress, and the pressures of modern-day living, exert on our bodies and our minds at the expense of good 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. Now 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. Cowritten with his son Daniel, The Myth Of Normal is Maté's most ambitious and urgent book yet.

    There was a small amount of some type of black tar that was on the outside side and some of it got into a few pages, but it brushed away mostly and arrived in otherwise Very Good condition having been shipped in a cardboard box to minimize potential damage in shipping.
