Reviews / Votes
"The purpose is to answer common questions that are encountered in daily clinical practice.As almost all clinicians have to manage patients with pain on a regular basis, this book is a helpful resource with useful insights in every chapter...The topic of pain management is very relevant today and this is a useful reference for clinicians without formal training in pain medicine or headache."
