Lost Connections offers a radical new way of thinking about this crisis. It shows that once we understand the real causes, we can begin to turn to pioneering new solutions – ones that offer real hope.

“A really fantastic dive into depression’s causes. Almost everyone is going to suffer with some form of depression during their adult lives so educating yourself on it makes a lot of sense. Johann has trawled the entire globe speaking to some of the world’s most prominent experts and drawing on examples from history, anthropology, politics and more to elaborate his point. Probably a book to Audible as it is a bit wordy and Johann has a lovely accent. Non-Fiction 42”↗

“I loved Lost Connections by Johan Hari. He does a masterful job of exposing what addiction really is and why most people don’t understand it. I’d been working on writing on this topic for years but never published what I’d written. Hari uncovered many of the same stories but did so much better than I could have.”↗

“Three wonderful books I recommend that pertain to drug reform and depression – two issues in our minds this week – and some important connections between them: • Lost Connections by Johann Hari • Chasing the Scream by Johann Hari • How to Change Your Mind by Michael Pollan”↗
