SCIENCE AND PAIN "It is a marvel to me and a tribute to the persistence of selective attention that so many health care researchers seem unable to come to grips with what has been well known and repeatedly demonstrated: namely, that humans and the complex behaviors they emit can be understood only by considering their biomedical, genetic, psychological, and environmental/social contexts. To do less is to perpetuate a myth. Pain, particularly, chronic pain is transdermal. Put another way, perhaps pain ought to be seen as a verb, not a noun." —W. E. Fordyce (1999).
