Pain as Human Experience: An Anthropological Perspective (Comparative Studies of Health Systems and Medical Care)
"A sophisticated and engaging book that takes us into subtle phenomenal  worlds that ordinarily escape the attention of social scientists."  --Richard A.  Hilbert, American Journal of Sociology"The authors . . . describe pain in a new, more complete manner that  includes its contextual dimensions. They demonstrate that it has a voice that  speaks with a power that words alone often fail to convey."  --Jeffrey M. Borkan,  Journal of the American Medical Association
