We tend to believe that normality equals health. Yet what is the norm in the Western world?

Mental illness and chronic disease are on an unstoppable rise. How did we get here?
And what lies ahead for us?

'It all starts with waking up... to what our bodies are expressing and our minds are suppressing.'

In this life-affirming book, Gabor Maté connects the dots between our personal suffering and the relentless pressures of modern life - showing that ill health is a natural reflection of our disconnection from our true selves. Drawing on four decades of clinical experience, and stories of people transforming their bodies and minds, Dr Maté offers a hopeful pathway to reconnection and healing.

Ein Buch über die weibliche Pubertät, das sich an sowohl an Eltern, als auch an deren Töchter richtet? Ich war skeptisch, aber wenn es jemand schafft, gut lesbares Infotainment zu liefern, dabei kompetent, aber gleichzeitig lässig und lustig zu sein, dann ist das the one and only Dr.med. Sheila de Liz. Analoge Leser*innen kennen die Gynäkologin vielleicht schon von der Spiegel-Bestsellerliste, wo ihre Werke zum weiblichen Körper und zu den Wechseljahren über lange Zeit Stammplätze inne hatten; deren Kinder und Enkelkinder begegnen wahrscheinlich eher dem TikTok-Kanal @doktorsex, den sie zusammen mit einem Kollegen betreibt. Als Mutter, Frauenärztin und online ist sie täglich mit einem Haufen Unsicherheit und Fragen konfrontiert, die sie hier offen, schamfrei und direkt beantwortet.
So cool und empowernd kann und sollte ein generationsübergreifender Ratgeber sein- ich finde, sie hat alles richtig gemacht.

Expectant parents get almost as many unsolicited book recommendations as they do pieces of advice from their friends, family ... and strangers on the street.
This recommendation comes every bit as unsolicited of course but I cannot help but think it should be prescribed by every doctor in the world after the first positive pregnancy test (even before in fact).
Oster is an economist and she has made it her mission to analyse the best data out there to help women make good decisions about their pregnancies (and by extension their partners too). If the long list of pregnancy prohibitions has ever seemed strange to you, this book will help you to differentiate between the very real dangers of some substances on your baby and the foods and drinks that really aren't that dangerous at all.
Oster's explicit goal is to help people make good evidence-based decisions so the book doesn't judge those who prefer ultra caution but it does help put the choice back into pregnant women's lives.

Maté, GaborMaté, Daniel

A celebrated speaker, and bestselling author, Dr Gabor Maté is highly sought after for his expertise on a range of topics including addiction, stress and childhood development. Rather than offering quick-fix solutions to these complex issues, Dr Maté weaves together scientific research, case histories, and his own insights and experience to present a broad perspective that enlightens and empowers people to promote their own healing and that of those around them.

Dr Maté has written several bestselling books including When the Body Says No, Scattered Minds and co-authored Hold on to Your Kids. His most recent book The Myth of Normal: Trauma, Illness & Healing in a Toxic Culture is a New York Times bestseller. Dr Maté's works have been published internationally in over twenty languages.

Supporters of Dr Maté include Dr Rangan Chatterjee, Bessel van der Kolk, Johann Hari and Esther Perel. He was recently featured in the highly publicised livestream conversation with Prince Harry where they discussed loss, trauma and the importance of healing.
Daniel Maté is an acclaimed composer-lyricist who has received the Kleban Prize for Lyrics, the ASCAP Foundation Cole Porter Award and a Jonathan Larson Grant. His musicals include The Longing and the Short of It, Hansel & Gretl & Heidi & Guùnter, Middle School Mysteries and a forthcoming adaptation of the Russell Banks novel The Sweet Hereafter. He also runs a popular 'mental chiropractic' service called Take a Walk with Daniel.
