Critic Reviews

INTERNATIONAL BESTSELLER

“This book has many strengths. . . . When Maté witnesses and testifies to human suffering, including his own, he is compassionate and compelling.” —The Globe and Mail

“Written with clarity and compassion. . . . The book’s characteristics seem to describe Maté himself: armed with knowledge and straight from the heart.” —The Georgia Straight

“Maté’s medical background and lucid writing style make complex biological processes accessible to non-scientific readers.” —The Gazette

“Maté carefully explains the biological mechanisms that are activated when stress and trauma exert a powerful influence on the body, and he backs up his claims with compelling evidence from the field. . . . Both the lay and specialist reader will be grateful for the final chapter, ‘The Seven A’s of Healing,’ in which Maté presents an open formula for healing and the prevention of illness resulting from hidden stress.” —Quill & Quire

“It’s a beguiling theory at a time when emotional stress is rampant and a culture of victimization permeates North American thought. . . . A strong collection of illustrative anecdotes drawn from Maté’s professional experience as well as many medical journal references.” —The Vancouver Sun

“[An] enthralling exploration of the relationship between stress and disease. . . . Maté probes deeply into the life histories and psyches of [his] many patients. . . . What emerges is nothing short of a revelation.” —Edmonton Journal
