Summary

"Here, Dr. Gary Kaplan argues that we've been thinking about the nature of pain all wrong. Drawing on patient stories and cutting-edge research, Dr. Kaplan concludes that chronic physical and emotional pain are two sides of the same coin. Whether pain is traumatic or slight, physical or emotional, our brains register all pain as the same thing, and these signals can keep firing in the nervous system for years."--From publisher description
