A 2026 book, 'A Philosophical Handbook for Pain Medicine Practice' by Milton Cohen and John Quintner, argues that pain medicine should evolve beyond the traditional biomedical model toward a comprehensive sociopsychobiomedical framework. The handbook draws on philosophy to reshape how clinicians understand and treat pain, prompting interest among practitioners questioning reductionist approaches to chronic pain care.

Why now: Ongoing debate in medicine over moving beyond the biomedical model in treating chronic pain.
