Hungry ghosts are, according to Buddhism, inhabitants of the lower worlds of the wheel of samsara, eternally experiencing unquenchable hunger or thirst, endless aching emptiness. In the book "In the Realm of Hungry Ghosts", recognized by the scientific community as an international bestseller, Gabor Mate tells about his work with drug addicts in one of the poor neighborhoods of Vancouver. With a superb gift for storytelling, the author immerses us in the world of his patients, emotionally deprived and addicted people. In this heartfelt book, which can be read in one breath, he shares with us the disturbing truth about the nature of addiction that goes back to childhood, a truth that is usually hidden by time, shame and social taboos.
