Description

What is it in our everyday life that contributes to this, and how has it become the new "normal"?

After more than 40 years of experience in clinical practice, the renowned doctor Gabor Maté has realized that the prevailing understanding of the concept of "normality" does not make sense.

It ignores how we are physically and mentally affected by the traumas, stress, and expectations that come with a modern lifestyle. Meeting the modern society's criteria for normality goes against our natural needs. Despite advanced technological innovations, the Western medical model fails to treat the whole person.

Maté does not wish to undermine the undeniable progress of medicine, but would like to contribute a new perspective: A view of normality that supports the best in us. "To reverse the negative health trend, we need to acknowledge the gap between what our innermost nature asks for and what 'normality' demands of us."

Gabor Maté is internationally recognized for his work on, among other things, trauma and addiction, and "The Myth of Normal" has ranked high on bestseller lists worldwide. It has sold over 3 million copies and been translated into more than 30 languages.
