Pain A Political History

This book examines how pain and compassionate relief define a line between society's liberal trends and conservative tendencies. Tracing the development of pain theories in politics, medicine, and law, and legislative and social quarrels over the morality and economics of relief, the author points to a tension at the heart of the conservative-liberal divide.
