The Pain Management Handbook
Those who do not feel pain seldom think that it is felt. SAMUEL JoHNSON, The Rambler, no. 48 (September 1, 1750) Who among us has not experienced the suffering of a patient with chronic disease, who in addition to the vicissitudes of fatigue, anxiety, and frustration, must also deal with the suffering of pain? Who among us has not considered, and then reconsidered, whether a patient's complaints are worthy of a narcotic and thence worried about the social and legal implications of chronic use? Who among us has not refused pain medications to our patients for fear that use was turning into abuse? Finally, who among us would not have liked a clinical guide to a myriad of syndromes, all of whic...
Live Like Nobody Is Watching
As our society embraces expanding forms of personal and health monitoring, particularly with the use of artificial intelligence (AI), how may these technologies change the way we define what it means to live a free and healthy life? Drawing on the examples of home health monitoring, direct-to-consumer health apps, and medication adherence monitoring, this book explores the socio-relational contexts that are framing the promotion of AI health monitoring, and the potential consequences of the proliferation of these technologies. It argues for a relational conception of autonomy and explores how socio-systemic conditions shape the cultural meanings of personal responsibility, healthy living and aging, trust, and caregiving in the era of big data and AI. This book proposes ethical strategies that can help preserve and promote people's relational autonomy in the digital era.

The Brain Behind Pain
Explores the important role of the brain in both the experience of pain and its resolution. Pain is a product of the brain, which announces it after being warned by a small army of nocioceptors stationed throughout the body, always on alert for any threat to the overall system. But there can be glitches in that process. Chronic pain often occurs when the brain "remembers" pain, even though the condition that caused it may have been dealt with and resolved. Still, pain is misunderstood by many, including both sufferers and the physicians they seek out to treat it. In recent years, though, new light has been shed on just what causes pain, how it is experienced in the body, how it can go haywir...
