The Myth of Normal: Trauma, Illness, and Healing in a Toxic Culture by Gabor Maté

5.0

This is an astute book on the relationship between childhood trauma and illness including addiction. It is a very long book, but Dr. Mate is a very compassionate physician and wants to share his incites with those who need healing the most. As a foster parent, I can verify there are many children in this country that are lucky to survive their childhood and are in desperate need of mental health services designed for trauma survivers.
