| Annotation | A review of some recent textbooks and other literature on old age revealed that chronic pain in older people is a relatively neglected area which is bound to have consequences for nursing practice. In the first of a two part series, the authors review the literature relating to chronic pain and its demography, age-related changes in sensitivity to pain, and its effects on older people's lives.
