Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume was first published by Inter-Disciplinary Press in 2013. Chronicity is about people rather than medical conditions. It may best be understood as a complex phenomenon in which multiple elements interact with each other in unpredictable ways to bring about unanticipated changes. Making sense of chronicity, therefore, requires that we not only pay attention to all aspects of experiencing the condition, but also think about the relationships between them.
