Dr. Paul Wilson Brand was een baanbrekend chirurg, bekend om zijn innovatieve behandelingen voor lepra. Hij begreep dat het verlies van pijngevoel, in plaats van weefselverval, de belangrijkste oorzaak was van blessuregevoeligheid bij zijn patiënten.

Naast zijn klinische werk schreef hij ook meeslepende autobiografische verhalen die de waarde van pijn en het doel van zijn leven verkenden.
