Book excerpt: People in Pain contributes the awareness--either long neglected or long denied--that people's cultural roots determine their ways of tolerating and expressing pain.

Transcriptions of interviews lend the findings a touch of humanity, individuality, and authenticity. Implications for practical use may extend beyond professional understanding of patients to other areas of human relations.
