Written by Professor G. Lorimer Moseley, a clinical neuroscientist and the co-author of the Explain Pain collection of books, Painful Yarns uses humorous anecdotes to educate readers on the biology of pain.
This compilation of hilarious stories and images is intended to help explain the complexity of pain. Sourced from Professor Moseley’s travels in outback Australia and beyond, and the fascinating people he meets along the way, each story is linked to a key aspect of pain biology.
Described by critics as “a gem,” and by patients as “bloody helpful,” this book is a clever example of therapeutic “edu-tainment” for those who are interested in understanding pain. The entertaining stories are used as metaphors to explain the biology of pain. Painful Yarns is fun, educational and entertaining; it serves as a perfect pre-read for the book Explain Pain for those who want to improve mindfulness and pain understanding.
Some of the stories include:
Lorimer is a Bradley Distinguished Professor, a professor of clinical neurosciences, and a foundation chair in physiotherapy at the University of South Australia. A clinician, scientist and educator, his research investigates the role of the brain and mind in chronic pain. He is the author of over 400 research articles and seven books. In 2020, he was made an Officer of the Order of Australia (AO), the country’s second highest civilian honor, for distinguished contribution to humanity at large in several fields. He leads a non-profit organization called Pain Revolution.
