We tend to believe that normality equals health. But in today's modern world, rising rates of anxiety, depression, addiction and chronic illness suggest otherwise. So, what is normal - and is it making us unwell?
In this life-affirming book, Dr Gabor Maté connects the dots between trauma, mental health, and physical illness, showing how our health is shaped by the pressures and expectations of modern life.
Drawing on decades of clinical experience, and real-life stories of people transforming their bodies and minds, Dr Gabor Maté offers a compassionate and hopeful path to healing, self-awareness and emotional wellbeing.
In The Myth of Normal, you'll discover:
- Why the illnesses of body and mind can natural responses to a toxic culture
- How stress and emotional suppression affect the body
- The science behind the mind-body connection in healing and wellbeing
- A hopeful path towards resilience, balance and authenticity
Compassionate and urgent, this empowering bestseller shows how true health is possible when we are willing to embrace our authentic selves.

not live-changing, but mind-shifting
Maté’s central claim—that we urgently need to reimagine culture to prioritize well-being and connection over alienating capitalism—is both relevant and important. He compellingly highlights how modern Western culture contributes to rising illness and disorder in wealthy nations, grounding his reflections in research and indigenous wisdom. Written with deep compassion and empathy, the book thoughtfully emphasizes that our flaws don’t make us broken—they make us human. While Maté sometimes ventures beyond his expertise and offers oversimplified analyses, and some conclusions feel uncomfortably close to shifting the blame of being ill onto the affected person, his openness about his own struggles lends the book a refreshing honesty and immediacy.
