Pain Science Resources (for laypeople)

Given a few recent questions/concerns regarding how to communicate contemporary pain science with the “lay folk”, I thought I’d make a thread, hopefully not duplicated, dedicated to resources on pain science for that cohort of people. That way, maybe this can serve as the go-to link for people with those questions/concerns. Everyone is welcome to contribute and the experts are of course free and open to honest critique of any cited source. Also, there is inherent fuzziness around what may constitute appropriate reading material for the specific population of “laypeople”. I’m open to ways of improving this thread and for there to be some wiggle room around those concepts.

Heres my initial contribution:
