In the Realm of Hungry Ghosts: Close Encounters with Addiction

Gabor Maté (2008) Knopf Canada

A compassionate exploration of addiction and its roots in childhood trauma and emotional suffering. Drawing on neuroscience, psychology, and his experience as a physician in Vancouver’s Downtown Eastside, Maté argues that addiction is not a moral failing but a response to pain. Essential reading for understanding trauma-informed approaches in psychedelic work.
