“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.]]>https://lethlib.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S980C6384756https://lethlib.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S980C6384756Mon, 31 Jan 2022 00:00:00 GMThttps://lethlib.bibliocommons.com/item/comment/6384756980EBOOKTrauma, Illness and Healing in a Toxic Cultureenghttps://secure.syndetics.com/index.aspx?isbn=9780735278370/MC.GIF&client=chinookarch&type=xw12&oclc=https://lethlib.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S40C141891https://lethlib.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S40C141891Fri, 31 Jan 2003 00:00:00 GMThttps://lethlib.bibliocommons.com/item/comment/141891040BKThe Cost of Hidden Stressenghttps://secure.syndetics.com/index.aspx?isbn=9780676973112/MC.GIF&client=chinookarch&type=xw12&oclc=INTERNATIONAL BESTSELLER • From renowned mental health expert and speaker Dr. Gabor Maté, this acclaimed, bestselling guide provides insight into the mind-body link between illness and health, and the critical role that stress and our emotional makeup play in an array of common diseases.

In this breakthrough guide to understanding, treating, and healing attention deficit disorder, Dr. Gabor Maté, an adult with ADD and the father of three ADD children, shares information on:
· The external factors that trigger ADD/ADHD
· How to create an environment that promotes health and healing
· Ritalin and other drugs
· ADD in adults
…and much more
Attention Deficit Disorder (ADD/ADHD) has remained a controversial topic in recent years. Whereas other books on the subject describe the condition as inherited, Dr. Maté shows how our social and emotional environments play a key role in both the cause of and cure for the condition. In Scattered Minds, he describes the painful realities of ADD/ADHD and its effect on children as well as on careers and social paths in adults. While acknowledging that genetics may indeed play a part in predisposing a person toward ADD/ADHD, Maté moves beyond that to focus on the things we can control: changes in environment, family dynamics, and parenting choices. He draws heavily on his own experience with the disorder, as both an ADD sufferer and the parent of three diagnosed children. Providing a thorough overview of ADD/ADHD and its treatments, Scattered Minds is essential and life-changing reading for the millions of ADD/ADHD sufferers in North America today.]]>https://lethlib.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S980C607159https://lethlib.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S980C607159Mon, 31 Jan 2011 00:00:00 GMThttps://lethlib.bibliocommons.com/item/comment/607159980EBOOKThe Origins and Healing of Attention Deficit Disorderenghttps://secure.syndetics.com/index.aspx?isbn=9780307374691/MC.GIF&client=chinookarch&type=xw12&oclc=https://lethlib.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S40C38074https://lethlib.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S40C38074Thu, 31 Jan 2008 00:00:00 GMThttps://lethlib.bibliocommons.com/item/comment/38074040BKClose Encounters With Addictionenghttps://secure.syndetics.com/index.aspx?isbn=9780676977400/MC.GIF&client=chinookarch&type=xw12&oclc=#1 NATIONAL BESTSELLER • From the author of When the Body Says No and The Myth of Normal—The definitive book for understanding the roots and behaviours of addiction.

Dr. Gabor Maté is one of the world’s most revered thinkers on the psychology of addiction. His radical findings—based on decades of work with patients challenged by catastrophic drug addiction and mental illness—has helped reframe how we view all human development. In this award-winning modern classic, through first-person accounts, riveting case studies, pioneering research and compassionate argument, Maté takes a panoramic yet highly intimate and compassionate look at this widespread and perplexing human ailment, whether it be addiction to alcohol, drugs, sex, money or anything self-destructive. He presents it not as a discrete phenomenon confined to a weak-willed few, but as a continuum that runs through (and even underpins) our society—not as a medical ‘condition’, but rather the result of a complex interplay of personal history, emotional development and brain chemistry.
Distilling cutting-edge research from around the world, In the Realm of Hungry Ghosts avoids glib self-help remedies, instead promoting self-understanding as the first key to healing and wellness. Blending personal stories and science with positive solutions, and written in spellbinding prose, it is a must-read that will change how you see yourself, others and the world.]]>https://lethlib.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S980C554831https://lethlib.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S980C554831Sat, 31 Jan 2009 00:00:00 GMThttps://lethlib.bibliocommons.com/item/comment/554831980EBOOKClose Encounters with Addictionenghttps://secure.syndetics.com/index.aspx?isbn=9780307371737/MC.GIF&client=chinookarch&type=xw12&oclc=#1 NATIONAL BESTSELLER

In Hold On to Your Kids, Dr. Neufeld and Dr. Maté explore the phenomenon of peer orientation: the troubling tendency of children and youth to look to their peers for direction—for a sense of right and wrong, for values, identity and codes of behaviour. But peer orientation undermines family cohesion, poisons the school atmosphere, and fosters an aggressively hostile and sexualized youth culture. It provides a powerful explanation for schoolyard bullying and youth violence; it is an escalating trend that has never been adequately described or contested until Hold On to Your Kids. Once understood, it becomes self-evident—as do the solutions.]]>https://lethlib.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S980C4172397https://lethlib.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S980C4172397Wed, 31 Jan 2018 00:00:00 GMThttps://lethlib.bibliocommons.com/item/comment/4172397980EAUDIOBOOKWhy Parents Need to Matter More Than Peersenghttps://secure.syndetics.com/index.aspx?isbn=9780735277427/MC.GIF&client=chinookarch&type=xw12&oclc=https://lethlib.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S40C1219888https://lethlib.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S40C1219888Thu, 31 Jan 2013 00:00:00 GMThttps://lethlib.bibliocommons.com/item/comment/1219888040BKWhy Parents Need to Matter More Than Peersenghttps://secure.syndetics.com/index.aspx?isbn=9780307361967/MC.GIF&client=chinookarch&type=xw12&oclc=https://lethlib.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S40C132753https://lethlib.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S40C132753Sat, 31 Jan 2004 00:00:00 GMThttps://lethlib.bibliocommons.com/item/comment/132753040BKWhy Parents Matterenghttps://secure.syndetics.com/index.aspx?isbn=9780676974713/MC.GIF&client=chinookarch&type=xw12&oclc=https://lethlib.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S40C557844https://lethlib.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S40C557844Tue, 31 Jan 2006 00:00:00 GMThttps://lethlib.bibliocommons.com/item/comment/557844040BKWhy Parents Need to Matter More Than Peersenghttps://secure.syndetics.com/index.aspx?isbn=9780375760280/MC.GIF&client=chinookarch&type=xw12&oclc=https://lethlib.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S40C3107136https://lethlib.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S40C3107136Sun, 31 Jan 2021 00:00:00 GMThttps://lethlib.bibliocommons.com/item/comment/3107136040DVDenghttps://secure.syndetics.com/index.aspx?isbn=/MC.GIF&client=chinookarch&type=xw12&oclc=&upc=810044717754https://lethlib.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S40C3172795https://lethlib.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S40C3172795Mon, 31 Jan 2022 00:00:00 GMThttps://lethlib.bibliocommons.com/item/comment/3172795040DVDenghttps://lethlib.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S40C3967782https://lethlib.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S40C3967782Fri, 31 Jan 2025 00:00:00 GMThttps://lethlib.bibliocommons.com/item/comment/3967782040BKPunishing Solidarity and Dissent in Canadaenghttps://secure.syndetics.com/index.aspx?isbn=9781771863957/MC.GIF&client=chinookarch&type=xw12&oclc=A fascinating look into nurturing and parenting in the natural world, supplemented with original illustrations
For readers of Becoming Animal and World of Wonders
A beautiful resource for Nature advocates, parents-to-be, Animal lovers, and anyone who seeks to restore wellbeing on our planet, The Evolved Nest reconnects us to lessons from the Animal world and shows us how to restore wellness in our families, communities, and lives.
Each of 10 chapters explores a different animal’s parenting model, sharing species-specific adaptations that allow each to thrive in their “evolved nests.” You’ll learn:

How Wolves build an internal moral compass

How Beavers foster a spirit of play in their children

How Octopuses develop emotional and social intelligence

How, when, and whether (or not) Brown Bears decide to have children

What their lessons can teach you—whether you’re a parent, grandparent, caregiver, or childfree

Psychologists Drs. Darcia Narvaez and Gay Bradshaw show us how each evolved nest offers inspiration for reexamining our own systems of nurturing, understanding, and caring for our young and each other. Alongside beautiful illustrations, stunning scientific facts, and lessons in neuroscience, psychology, and evolutionary biology, we learn to care deeper: to restore our innate place within the natural world and fight for an ecology of life that supports our flourishing in balance with Nature alongside our human and non-human family.]]>https://lethlib.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S980C9158509https://lethlib.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S980C9158509Tue, 31 Jan 2023 00:00:00 GMThttps://lethlib.bibliocommons.com/item/comment/9158509980EBOOKNature's Way of Raising Children and Creating Connected Communitiesenghttps://secure.syndetics.com/index.aspx?isbn=9781623177683/MC.GIF&client=chinookarch&type=xw12&oclc=https://lethlib.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S40C4170559https://lethlib.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S40C4170559Sun, 31 Jan 2021 00:00:00 GMThttps://lethlib.bibliocommons.com/item/comment/4170559040VIDEO_ONLINEenghttps://lethlib.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S40C3972010https://lethlib.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S40C3972010Sat, 31 Jan 2026 00:00:00 GMThttps://lethlib.bibliocommons.com/item/comment/3972010040BKA Mental Health Survival Guide for Us Allenghttps://secure.syndetics.com/index.aspx?isbn=9781443474412/MC.GIF&client=chinookarch&type=xw12&oclc=https://lethlib.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S40C987102https://lethlib.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S40C987102Sun, 31 Jan 2010 00:00:00 GMThttps://lethlib.bibliocommons.com/item/comment/987102040BKPhotographsenghttps://secure.syndetics.com/index.aspx?isbn=9781897535288/MC.GIF&client=chinookarch&type=xw12&oclc=https://lethlib.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S40C695455https://lethlib.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S40C695455Tue, 31 Jan 2006 00:00:00 GMThttps://lethlib.bibliocommons.com/item/comment/695455040BKSugar-coated Crisis : Who Gets It, Who Profits and How to Stop Itenghttps://secure.syndetics.com/index.aspx?isbn=9780865715677/MC.GIF&client=chinookarch&type=xw12&oclc=https://lethlib.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S40C2611398https://lethlib.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S40C2611398Sun, 31 Jan 2016 00:00:00 GMThttps://lethlib.bibliocommons.com/item/comment/2611398040BLURAYeng
