520    "Chronic pain is an epidemic. Fifty million Americans 
       struggle with back pain, headaches, or some other pain 
       that resists all treatment. Desperate pain sufferers are 
       told again and again that there is no cure for chronic 
       pain. Alan Gordon, a psychotherapist and the founder of 
       the Pain Psychology Center in Los Angeles, was in grad 
       school when he started experiencing chronic pain and it 
       completely derailed his life. He saw multiple doctors and 
       received many diagnoses, but none of the medical 
       treatments helped. Frustrated with conventional pain 
       management, he developed Pain Reprocessing Therapy (PRT), 
       a mind-body protocol that eliminated his own chronic pain 
       and has transformed the lives of thousands of his 
       patients. PRT is rooted in neuroscience, which has shown 
       that while chronic pain feels like it's coming from the 
       body, in most cases it's generated by misfiring pain 
       circuits in the brain. PRT is a system of psychological 
       techniques that rewires the brain to break out of the 
       cycle of chronic pain. The University of Colorado-Boulder 
       recently conducted a large randomized controlled study on 
       PRT, and the results are remarkable. By the end of the 
       study, the majority of patients were pain-free or nearly 
       pain-free. What's more, these dramatic changes held up 
       over time. The Way Out brings PRT to readers. It combines 
       accessible science with a concrete, step-by-step plan to 
       teach sufferers how to heal their own chronic pain."--Back
