Recensione

"This is an excellent handbook that does justice to its title. It's not a procedure-oriented pain book, instead addressing the more basic and pertinent questions before any therapy can be initiated. It is must-read book for pain fellows and anesthesia residents. In addition, primary care physicians will be much better prepared to help their patients and communicate effectively with pain physicians after reading this book." - Tariq M. Malik, MD(University of Chicago Pritzker School of Medicine), Doody's Review
