Rezensionen

"The book targets physicians in training or in practice sitting for a pain certification exam. It also can be a good source of information for any physicians who manage patients with chronic pain. ... The main theme of this one is brevity and the main audience is people interested in a book that can help them pass pain certification examinations. It's a quick read, with brief chapters that provide information in simple, clear text." (Tariq M. Malik, Doody's Book Reviews, April, 2018)
