Book DescriptionBased on Gabor Maté’s two decades of experience as a medical doctor and his groundbreakingwork with the severely addicted on Vancouver’s skid row, In the Realm of Hungry Ghostsradically reenvisions this much misunderstood field by taking a holistic approach. Dr. Matépresents addiction not as a discrete phenomenon confined to an unfortunate or weak-willed few,but as a continuum that runs throughout (and perhaps underpins) our society; not a medical"condition" distinct from the lives it affects, rather the result of a complex interplay amongpersonal history, emotional, and neurological development, brain chemistry, and the drugs (andbehaviors) of addiction. Simplifying a wide array of brain and addiction research findings fromaround the globe, the book avoids glib self-help remedies, instead promoting a thorough andcompassionate self-understanding as the first key to healing and wellness. In the Realm of HungryGhosts argues persuasively against contemporary health, social, and criminal justice policiestoward addiction and those impacted by it. The mix of personal stories—including the author’scandid discussion of his own "high-status" addictive tendencies—and science with positivesolutions makes the book equally useful for lay readers and professionals.
