The Myth of Normal

Trauma, Illness, and Healing in a Toxic Culture

Book • 2022

In this book, Gabor Maté and his son Daniel Maté challenge the prevailing understanding of 'normal' health, arguing that Western medicine often neglects the impact of trauma, stress, and modern-day living on our bodies and minds.

They connect the dots between individual health issues and the broader societal problems, offering a compassionate guide for health and healing.

The book is based on over four decades of clinical experience and is supported by extensive scientific research, patient stories, and personal disclosures.
