· When can anxiety be good? · How can I change my pain experience? · How does trauma change the way our brains work? · Why can't we tickle ourselves? This collection of science-based graphic medicine comics addresses these questions (amongst many others) and makes complex human experiences accessible, engaging and gently humorous. Written by Steve Haines, a bodyworker and creative storyteller, and illustrated by Sophie Standing, who specializes in human sciences, these comics explore topics that make us fundamentally human - anxiety, pain, trauma, and touch: Anxiety is Really Strange Pain is Really Strange Trauma is Really Strange Touch is Really Strange This special boxset also includes a useful and beautifully illustrated wallchart.
