If I could make my own Mount Rushmore, Dr. Gabor Mate would be on it. He is a genius and this is certainly his magnum opus. He synthesizes a massive amount of research, data, anecdote, history, policy, and theory in this book as he unpacks the “why” and “how” of our widespread unwell-ness.
I’m having a hard time thinking of a book more widely applicable and useful than this one. If taken seriously, the patterns explored herein would impact the structure and direction of every layer of society, and the choices of every person within it.
If I had to offer a critique, it would be that this book is probably not as accessible as it could be, given its widespread applicability - it reads rather academically, with complex language that some may find off-putting. Others will enjoy the precision of thought it offers.
One of my favorite reads of recent years. Dr. Mate is a gift to us all.
