A lo largo de nuestra vida, todos experimentaremos dolor, pero nadie sabe cuando comenzara ni cuanto tiempo durara. En la actualidad, un diez por ciento de la poblacion de los Estados Unidos sufre dolor cronico. Este ensayo rastrea las diferentes concepciones del dolor a traves de la historia para desvelar su esquiva naturaleza. Y asi, entrelazando reflexiones en primera persona, esplendidos reportajes realizados en los mas importantes centros medicos de investigacion y clinicas del dolor, asi como inteligentes contribuciones de un vasto abanico de disciplinas, Thernstrom nos demuestra que cuando tenemos que enfrentarnos al dolor, no hemos avanzado tanto como imaginamos, pero tampoco estamos tan indefensos como tememos. / Throghout our lives, we all experience pain, but nobody knows when it will begin or how long it will last. Currently, ten percent of the population of the United States suffer from chronic pain. This essay traces the different conceptions of pain through history to reveal its evasive nature. In this way, by weaving together first person accounts, reports carried out in the most important medical research centres and pain clinics, as well as intelligent contributions from a vast spectrum of diciplines, Thernstrom demonstrates that when it comes to facing up to pain, we haven´t advanced as much as we would like to imagine but neither are we as defenceless as we fear.
