Davies (psychology and anthropology, Roehampton U.) considers emotional suffering not as a medical problem but part and parcel of what it means to live and develop as human beings. This view supports the growing number of people who sense that their suffering is not always futile or harmful, but often integral to many processes of individual and social reform and betterment. Among his topics are the relational perspective on suffering, anesthetic regimes and the unproblematic life, productive suffering as a ritual process, and the period of transition in the ritual of productive suffering.
