In the Realm of Hungry Ghosts (2007) offers a powerful look into the reality of addiction. Dr. Gabor Maté begins by introducing many of his patients, all suffering mentally and physically because of addiction. He paints a raw picture of addiction’s effects on the human body and psyche. He then dives into the root causes of addiction, offering a biological and psychological analysis. Maté clears up common misconceptions about drug use, exposes the ineffectiveness of the War on Drugs, and offers insight into what might be an effective recovery strategy. He even looks at everyday addictions that may not be as damaging but still can be harmful through exploring his own obsession with classical music. Whatever the addiction, it is always a poor substitute for love.
