challenging informative reflective tense slow-paced

4.0

Dr. Maté is absolutely worth a read and his book has a wealth of information on addiction, societal stigma, and trauma. However, some parts of In The Realm of Hungry Ghosts are a bit outdated esp cially when it comes to some best practices & inclusive language so a critical eye is important when reading.
