A remarkable book that explores the boundaries and the meaning of
pain - and how conventional understanding and treatment are failing
us.

An accessible and well-written book... [Dr Lyman] takes us into the
world of pain: its weirdness, its growing pervasiveness and how
it's been misunderstood for centuries.
