Fact-checking?,
This review is from: Pain Medicine and Management: Just the Facts (Paperback)
Numerous mistakes that should have been found in the most basic copy review. Page 95 for example - "Biopatch dressing impregnated with Hibiclens" - one branded product impregnated with another branded product?! Biopatch is a delivery system for chlorhexidine gluconate, not Hibiclens, which also uses CHG. Takes away from the credibility of the book.

The best option at this time,
By Ligament (Chicago) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Pain Medicine and Management: Just the Facts (Paperback)
I think this is a very good pain review book. The chapters are written by respective experts in that field (ie. Racz did the chapter on epidurolysis of adhesions, etc). It is actually good as a reference book as well, as the authors have condensed much of the literature into this slim book. I find it a much better option to Raj's review book, as it is much more up to date, edited better, more concise. There really are not any other options out there for pain review, and so far this is the best.

Facts indeed, but not practical for quick exam review,
By
This review is from: Pain Medicine and Management: Just the Facts (Paperback)
Mundane array of facts after facts, displayed in non-dynamic fashion, I found it very difficult to focus on highlights of pain management topics that are necessary for board exam prepation.
