The Power of Addiction and The Addiction of Power: Gabor Maté at TEDxRio+20

"From the lack of love to the desire to escape oneself, from susceptibility of the being to interior power -- nothing escapes. And he risks a generic and generous prescription:  'Find your nature and be nice to yourself.'"

Hooked, Hacked, Hijacked: Reclaim Your Brain from Addictive Living: Dr. Pam Peeke at TEDxWallStreet

"Presently, Dr. Peeke is Senior Science Advisor to Elements Behavioral Health, the nation's most preeminent network of eating disorders and addiction centers."

Mechanism of Drug Addiction in the Brain, Animation.

"Addiction is a neurological disorder that affects the reward system in the brain. In a healthy person, the reward system reinforces important behaviors that are essential for survival such as eating, drinking, sex, and social interaction."
