Over the past twenty years these and other forms of chronic benign pain have been recognized as serious afflictions that affect a significant segment of the adult population. Researchers have investigated the various medical and psychological aspects of chronic benign pain; now Ranjan Roy adds a critical new dimension with study of the social forces that determine the lives of these patients and their responses to their condition.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe effects of chronic pain on a patient's social system can be devastating. Roy discusses the extent to which the negative consequences can be reduced, even if the pain itself remains impervious to treatment. He considers a range of interventions that can significantly modify the negative effects of chronic pain, and discusses some of these in detail to enable clinicians to implement them.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Ranjan Roy\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0802073603\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780802073600\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e University of Toronto Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 10\/10\/1992\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 200\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.69lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.21h x 6.14w x 0.46d","brand":"Ranjan Roy","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":48448959611135,"sku":"9780802073600","price":35.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_8d1fabef-4f78-4100-a4a8-d08c35a34ef5.jpg?v=1777261352","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/the-social-context-of-the-ranjan-roy-9780802073600","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
