A review by debthebee13
The Myth of Normal by Daniel Maté, Gabor Maté
5.0
I think this book is well written with well balanced rational views on the current state of us all living traumatised and sick in a toxic culture. It examines the mind-body connection that is still mostly overlooked in classic medicine, while proof keeps emerging of its strength and importance. This book was a delight to listen to and I have a feeling that Daniel was the one who made the biggest contribution in shaping it so. While Gabor does give some rough guidelines in how to heal in this world as it is, I was a bit disappointed to learn that the path towards healing doesn't have clearly paved steps. However, since this book stands out among the educational books I've read lately in how much information it delivers without too much excessive fillers, I'd say it deserves five stars after all.
