The urge : our history of addiction (engelsk)


Beskrivelse


As a psychiatrist-in-training fresh from medical school, Carl Erik Fisher came face to face with his own addiction crisis. Here, he investigates the history of this age-old condition that probes not only medicine and science but also literature, religion, philosophy, and sociology, illuminating the extent to which the story of addiction has persistently reflected broader questions of what it means to be human and care for one another.
