Reviews
"…Weiner's text
is state-of-the-art on all aspects of pain and its multidisciplinary
management. … Unusually for a tome this large, it makes
for quite a good read. It even tells you how to fix a headache."
- Janet Hardy, Royal Marsden Hospital, Sutton, Surrey, UK,
in Journal of the Royal Society of Medicine
"…a wonderful, interesting
book which I will refer to whenever I need to discuss pain control.
Compared to other books, it definitely covers topics never addressed
in internationally recognized resources. 5 stars!"
- Louis G. Salib, M.D., University of Chicago, in Doody's
