Rebel Book Club Oxford x REWIRED
About this Event
About the book:
Gabor Maté is one of the world's most respected voices on addiction, trauma, and childhood development, and he himself has ADD. In , he challenges the idea that attention deficit disorder is purely genetic, arguing instead that it develops through the interplay of environment, stress, and early childhood experience. Drawing on neuroscience, his clinical practice, and his own life as both someone with ADD and the parent of diagnosed children, Maté offers a compassionate, evidence-based framework for understanding the condition and, crucially, for healing it.
Why we chose it: “A healer to be cherished and this exciting book arrives at just the right time” - Naomi Klein
Delicious drinks are included, as well as engaging storytelling and space for conversations and sharing.

Your host for the evening: Andie
Originally from Bilbao, Spain, Andie works in public relations for businesses in the renewable energy sector. In her free time, she's a voracious reader, book blogger and amateur runner. Having spent part of her 20s living in Baku and Moscow has made her drawn to Soviet history and she can't resist a good spy biography.
Andie believes that books are the answer to every question and there is no better tool to help us understand how the world and people work. She's leading RBC Oxford hoping to continue spreading the love for knowledge through a supportive and fun community that comes together for engaging conversations, growing a little with each book and discussion.
Andie's non-fiction recommendations:
1. Agent Sonya by Ben MacIntyre
2. Shoe Dog by Phil Knight
3. The Subtle Art of Not Giving a F*ck by Mark Manson
