Pain is one of the most frequent health complaints among older people. Neuropsychiatric disturbances can severely affect the experience of pain. This volume describes the origins of pain from the viewpoint of gerontological psychiatry, discusses the importance of neuropsychopharmaceutic agents in pain therapy, and presents effective nonmedicinal psychiatric and psychotherapeutic forms of treatment. Interactions between pain and addiction, ranging up to dependency on painkillers, are discussed.
