This edited volume provides the first comprehensive, multidisciplinary exploration of social pain, the experience of pain as a result of interpersonal rejection or loss. It examines the subject from a neuroscience perspective, explores the implications of social pain for functioning in interpersonal relationships, and examines social pain from a biopsychosocial perspective in its consideration of the health implications. The book concludes with an integrative review of these diverse perspectives.
