It is quite difficult to write a popular science book about such an outwardly simple, ordinary and at the same time complex phenomenon as pain. The author of the book was able to describe the phenomenon of pain in all its forms, relying both on the results of scientific research and on examples from his own medical practice. The author boldly argues that modern science studying the phenomenon of pain is quite contradictory and sometimes absurd with its loud findings and conclusions. The paradoxes of pain described in the book are the main argument that pain cannot be ignored, since it is the main signal that something is wrong in the body. But most importantly, the author of the book finds unique solutions for relieving this or that type of pain, which makes this book unique and useful for the reader who took the time to read it!
