Notes:

"What is the nature of pain? How do we make sense of it? How does it make sense of us? Around a table in Warsaw, fifty people - medical practitioners, anthropologists, philosophers, literature scholars, professors, dancers, sociologists, psychologists and therapists - sat together for three days at the second international Making Sense of Pain conference (22-24 May 2011), as sponsored by InterDisciplinary.Net."
