Editorial Reviews

Review

"A well-presented and informative guide that is very useful for practicing clinicians who treat patients with pain problems....An especially positive aspect of this book is the use of clear, well-written case examples that contain actual instructions for patients....This is a book I plan to own and recommend to other clinicians." --Charles P. McCreary, Ph.D.

"This is a very clear and detailed description of a self-management approach on treating chronic pain. Clinicians will appreciate the numerous case descriptions and treatment guidelines. The authors also offer unique discussions on the organization of a chronic pain management program, and about patients who require alternative management strategies." --Lawrence Bradley, Ph.D.

"This is a good. sound review on the problem of treating patients with chronic pain. The authors present their viewpoint clearly and have obviously had considerable experience in the field. The book is written for the health care provider interested in patients with chronic suffering syndrome." --Benjamin Crue, M.D.
