Produktbeschreibung
Nobody wants pain -at least, most of us-. We want a life without pain. We suppress pain with painkillers, injections or more violent methods. But pain often returns, worse than before. Worldwide, millions of people suffer from chronic pain. Despite our medical insights and advanced treatments, we seem powerless in effectively relieve pain for everyone. What are we doing wrong? Vincent Hoogstad and Jan-Paul van Wingerden have half a century of combined experience in treating pain, in humans and animals. In this book, they question the tales on pain that we humans create. We are not the only ones in pain. Most -maybe all- animals experience pain. Animals have no medication, surgeon or psychologist to ease their pain. How do animals cope with their pain? Could we learn something from them? Comparing pain in humans and other animals brings new, refreshing insights, which help us approach pain more effectively. This is not a self-management book. It does not promise instant pain relief. A different tale on pain, from hard scientific evidence. Approach to pain in a different way.
