Radio NL Interview
Do you know anyone with an addiction? As common as it appears to be, very little is known about the mechanisms that drive it. Marc Lewis is a neuroscientist and teacher in Holland. And he is also an author of a book about the brain and addictions of all kinds as well as a former drug addict himself. He joined Jim Harrison on Thursday, September 29th.

Informed by unparalleled neuroscientific insight and written with his usual flare, Marc Lewis’s The Biology of Desire effectively refutes the medical view of addiction as a brain disease. A bracing and informative corrective to the muddle that now characterizes public and professional discourse on this topic.” —Gabor Maté, M.D., author of In The Realm of Hungry Ghosts: Close Encounters With Addiction
