Resumen del Editor
More people than ever before see themselves as addicted to or recovering from addiction, whether it's alcohol or drugs, prescription meds, sex, gambling, porn, or the Internet. But despite the unprecedented attention, our understanding of addiction is trapped in unfounded 20th-century ideas, addiction as a crime or as brain disease, and equally outdated treatment.
Challenging both the idea of the addict's "broken brain" and the notion of a simple "addictive personality", Unbroken Brain offers a radical and groundbreaking new perspective, arguing that addiction is a learning disorder, and shows how seeing the condition this way can untangle our current debates over treatment, prevention, and policy. Like autistic traits, addictive behaviors fall on a spectrum - and they can be a normal response to an extreme situation. By illustrating what addiction is and is not, the book illustrates how timing, history, family, peers, culture, and chemicals come together to create both illness and recovery - and why there is no "addictive personality" or single treatment that works for all.
Combining Maia Szalavitz's personal story with a distillation of more than 25 years of science and research, Unbroken Brain provides a paradigm-shifting approach to thinking about addiction.

From a renowned behavioral neuroscientist and recovering addict, a rare pause-resisting work of science that draws on personal insights to reveal how drugs work, the dangerous hold they can take on the brain, and the surprising way to combat today's epidemic of addiction. Judith Grisel was a daily drug user and college dropout when she began to consider that her addiction might have a cure, one that she herself could perhaps discover by studying the brain. Now, after 25 years as a neuroscientist, she shares what she and other scientists have learned about addiction.

Historia
The psychiatric establishment and rehab industry in the Western world have branded addiction a brain disease based on evidence that brains change with drug use. But in The Biology of Desire, cognitive neuroscientist and former addict Marc Lewis makes a convincing case that addiction is not a disease and shows why the disease model has become an obstacle to healing. Lewis reveals addiction as an unintended consequence of the brain doing what it's supposed to do - seek pleasure and relief - in a world that's not cooperating.

Historia
Trauma is a fact of life. Veterans and their families deal with the painful aftermath of combat; one in five Americans has been molested; one in four grew up with alcoholics; one in three couples have engaged in physical violence. Dr. Bessel van der Kolk, one of the world’s foremost experts on trauma, has spent more than three decades working with survivors. In The Body Keeps the Score, he uses recent scientific advances to show how trauma literally reshapes both body and brain, compromising sufferers’ capacities for pleasure, engagement, self-control, and trust.

In this revolutionary book, renowned physician Gabor Maté eloquently dissects how in Western countries that pride themselves on their healthcare systems, chronic illness and general ill health are on the rise. Nearly 70 percent of Americans are on at least one prescription drug; more than half take two. In Canada, every fifth person has high blood pressure. In Europe, hypertension is diagnosed in more than 30 percent of the population. And everywhere, adolescent mental illness is on the rise. So what is really “normal” when it comes to health?

In Push Off from Here, McKowen delves deeply into each of her nine points: what they mean, how they work, and how every person can live them. She addresses topics such as the correlation between trauma and addiction, the importance of radical honesty, letting go of the illusion of control, the value of community, a reminder that healing is a continual process, and that the process is a gift. Whether you’re just starting out or have been sober for decades, McKowen instructs us to be kind to ourselves: Change is messy and progress is rarely linear, but we can always push off from here.

The memoir of a neuroscientist whose research led him to a bizarre personal discovery, James Fallon had spent an entire career studying how our brains affect our behavior when his research suddenly turned personal. While studying brain scans of several family members, he discovered that one perfectly matched a pattern he’d found in the brains of serial killers. This meant one of two things: Either his family’s scans had been mixed up with those of felons or someone in his family was a psychopath.

A pioneering neuroscientist shares his story of growing up in one of Miami's toughest neighborhoods and how it led him to his groundbreaking work in drug addiction. As a youth, Carl Hart didn't realize the value of school; he studied just enough to stay on the basketball team. At the same time, he was immersed in street life. Today he is a cutting-edge neuroscientist - Columbia University's first tenured African American professor in the sciences.

Mr. A. was admitted to Dr. Joel Gold’s inpatient unit at Bellevue Hospital in 2002. He was, he said, being filmed constantly, and his life was being broadcast around the world "like The Truman Show" - the 1998 film depicting a man who is unknowingly living out his life as the star of a popular soap opera. Over the next few years, Gold saw a number of patients suffering from what he and his brother, Dr. Ian Gold, began calling the "Truman Show Delusion," launching them on a quest to understand the nature of this particular phenomenon and the nature of madness itself.

In Rewire, renowned psychotherapist Richard O’Connor, PhD, reveals why our bad habits die so hard. We have two brains - one a thoughtful, conscious, deliberative self, and the other an automatic self that does most of the work without our attention.

Americans have traditionally placed great value on self-reliance and fortitude. Recent decades, however, have seen the rise of a therapeutic ethic that views Americans as emotionally underdeveloped, requiring the ministrations of mental-health professionals to cope with life's vicissitudes. Today, having a book for every ailment, a counselor for every crisis, a lawsuit for every grievance, and a TV show for every problem degrades one's native ability to cope with life's challenges.

But in The Biology of Desire, cognitive neuroscientist and former addict Marc Lewis makes a convincing case that addiction is not a disease and shows why the disease model has become an obstacle to healing. Lewis reveals addiction as an unintended consequence of the brain doing what it's supposed to do - seek pleasure and relief - in a world that's not cooperating.

In Berkeley, California, in its hippie heyday, he found methamphetamine and LSD and heroin. He sniffed nitrous oxide in Malaysia and frequented Calcutta's opium dens. Ultimately, though, his journey took him where it takes most addicts: into a life of addiction, desperation, deception, and crime.

Dr. Hart did not always have this view. He came of age in one of Miami's most troubled neighborhoods at a time when many ills were being laid at the door of crack cocaine. His initial work as a researcher was aimed at proving that drug use caused bad outcomes.

Sounds like narrator recorded one sentence per day.
I got through chapter 6 before deciding to buy the Kindle version and read this instead. I usually like audiobooks where the author does NOT read their own books, but after struggling through with a narrator whose voice sounds like a computer synthesis, very robotic, like one sentence was recorded at a time very distinctly with gaps between the recordings, I just can't take it anymore.
The writing itself is fantastic, the material is very well written. The narrator just completely sucks. She has a beautiful voice, but her diction style is one of the worst I've heard, and I have listened to half of many badly narrated audiobooks. Way too robotic and stilted and overly melodic in a formulaic manner.

profound work on really treating addiction
addiction treatment via the 12 steps does not work for anything other than alcohol. this is obvious to anyone who reads about the heroin addict who overdoses and dies after 4, 8, or 20 rehabs. if rehab worked, that addict would be alive today.

Enlightening
Would you recommend this audiobook to a friend? If so, why?
Through the course of the book I thought about many different people in my life that I felt could seriously benefit from this book, so YES! And I already have.
What did you like best about this story?
I really liked how the author intertwined her experiences with data, experiments, studies, etc. and challenged the “conventional” way addiction and how those addicted are treated.
What about Marisa Vitali’s performance did you like?
She spoke in a way that made me feel as though I was in a personal conversation with the author.
Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?
No. I drive a lot for work and listened primarily in my car, so it took me a bit over a week to finish it.
Any additional comments?
THANK YOU Maia Szalavitz for writing this book!

great read
Excellence reading performance. I really enjoyed the new perspective on addiction as a psychological issue, and felt that many excellent points and recommendations were made. It was a little anecdotal that the author used he own story so strongly to make her points, but it was also backed with a lot of valid research that mostlymade up for it. Overall, a good experience.

Revolutionary
The book purports, among other things, that addiction is a learning disorder. Further, if the premise is correct then the assumption that jail time never cured an addict is correct. Addicts need love, support and medical attention just like any other medical problem. You cannot punish an addict back to health.

Must read to begin to understand addiction
As a medical doctor, I have struggled with the current approach to addiction treatment. This book lays out a more rational approach and that I hope we will increasingly adopt. I see opportunities for incorporating a rational approach within my own practice, although this is a new frontier and will certainly take time, energy, and courage.

A compassionate approach to substance learning
One of the better books I’ve found to help approach a modern narrative to addiction and recovery. Phenomenal book.

Exceptionally Repetitive
Overall, the content was good, but this book was so repetitive that it could have been written with a third of the text. The exact same points kept being brought up over and over and over again. The author really knows how to beat a dead horse. The reader is a little over the top in her pronunciation of Ts, buT you sorT of geT used to iT after a while.
