Review
“This book will serve as a great resource to practicing pain physicians and as a quick reference guide to physicians
who may practice rudimentary pain management. The text is easy to read, and the book is divided into 12 well-defined
parts for quick reference. … this book does cover common aspects of pain and will serve as a valuable review text for
anyone preparing for written board exams or involved in the recertification process.” (W. Scott Jellish, Anesthesia &
Analgesia, Vol. 126 (5), May, 2018)

“The purpose is to provide a one-stop source of information for everything one needs to know when doing a pain
fellowship. … Although the primary audience is pain fellows in training, the book covers enough topics that even
experienced pain physicians would find it useful. … this is a good attempt at bringing sanity to the field of pain
management, which has expanded in so many directions that every book is struggling to hold it together just to stay
relevant.” (Tariq M. Malik, Doody's Book Reviews, May, 2017)
