Reviews
Overall the book provides a comprehensive knowledge on the latest principles & practice of spinal pain management. It is well organized with thoughtful sequence and in an easy to follow format. * Shahzad Shamim, Apicare Online *
The trained pain physician is equally likely to have the book as the curious patient who lines up to see what he or she is in for when visiting the spine physician or the occupational therapist. This successful condensing is what makes this book a must-have for everyone involved in multispecialty spine treatment. * Sujoy Banik, MBBS, MD, DM, Anesthesia & Analgesia *
I was impressed by the title as not many books concentrate on the spine (from top to bottom and more) in such a way... 'handbook' understates its impressive and detailed contents as this is a chunky 660-page good-sized book that covers its topic in ample and impressive detail. * Dr Harry Brown, Glycosmedia *
