Based on Gabor Maté’s two decades of experience as a medical doctor and his groundbreaking work with the severely addicted on Vancouver’s skid row, In the Realm of Hungry Ghosts radically reenvisions this much misunderstood field by taking a holistic approach. Dr. Maté presents addiction not as a discrete phenomenon confined to an unfortunate or weak-willed few, but as a continuum that runs throughout (and perhaps underpins) our society; not a medical "condition" distinct from the lives it affects, rather the result of a complex interplay among personal history, emotional, and neurological development, brain chemistry, and the drugs (and behaviors) of addiction. Simplifying a wide array of brain and addiction research findings from around the globe, the book avoids glib self-help remedies, instead promoting a thorough and compassionate self-understanding as the first key to healing and wellness. In the Realm of Hungry Ghosts argues persuasively against contemporary health, social, and criminal justice policies toward addiction and those impacted by it. The mix of personal stories—including the author’s candid discussion of his own "high-status" addictive tendencies—and science with positive solutions makes the book equally useful for lay readers and professionals.

評分The reason why #War on Drugs# failed
評分"Realm of hungry ghost"指的是餓鬼道。人待在成癮的餓鬼道,是為瞭不墮入地獄啊。
評分Respectful Work
評分當時讀完The Biology of Desire馬剋的這本書,十分喜歡成癮≠疾病的argument。我和成癮患者打交道不深,但有一點點自己的心得:飛蛾撲火在我們的語言裏是對自取滅亡者的衊視,但是仔細想想看,飛蛾真的想毀滅自己麼?飛蛾隻是遵循本能飛嚮光和熱,撲上的恰好是一團火罷瞭。從自我毀滅的病態成癮到無傷大雅的日常習慣,我們可以學習太多:本能、習慣、自我、生物的境遇以及環境。地藏菩薩發誓去地獄渡人,但是被卡在煉獄裏的餓鬼離我們更近——那些為瞭逃避地獄般精神痛楚的人類,不小心被卡在瞭那。
