Explain Pain is the globally sought-after 2021 spiral-bound edition from Australian pain scientists David Butler and Lorimer Moseley. Written in plain English and packed with full-color cartoons, this updated textbook turns cutting-edge neuroscience into actionable strategies that help teens and adults finally understand why they hurt and how to dial the volume back down. Readers learn how the brain constructs pain, why tissues often heal long before discomfort disappears, and how to retrain the nervous system with targeted movements, language shifts, and graded exposure—skills that match the latest evidence and empower lasting recovery.
What makes this copy special is its practical, lay-flat spiral binding: every page stays open at eye level on a physio plinth, kitchen counter, or bedside table, so users can follow the illustrated metaphors and step-by-step exercises hands-free. The 2021 refresh weaves in fresh discoveries on immune system interplay, glial cells, and the gut–brain axis, giving health professionals, students, and motivated patients the most current framework for explaining pain to clients, families, or themselves. Wellness seekers value the book’s gentle humor and visual storytelling; clinicians praise the ready-to-photocopy handouts and the way it bridges the gap between complex research and everyday practice.
This particular paperback is in very good, smoke-free condition—no torn tabs, no highlighting, just crisp pages ready for immediate use. Because Explain Pain regularly sells out and is rarely discounted, securing a gently used, well-cared-for copy is the smartest way to own the edition everyone’s still quoting without paying full retail.
