Accessible to all health care professionals, this text provides a guide to understanding and managing back pain and is one of the premier examples of a biopsychosocial approach to medicine. The content challenges unsubstantiated beliefs regarding the best way to treat and manage back pain and presents an interdisciplinary debate on the subject. In a society where patients are demanding more effective approaches to their problems, this resource offers a radical rethink, a necessary step to achieving a more effective method of treatment. The unorthodox spirit of this material places this book at the center of the revolution taking place in the back pain area.

Gordon Waddell is the world authority on the topic of the back pain revolution.
The content addresses huge problems of concern to many disciplines and governments.
The unbiased, open-minded view looks at the issues and the evidence and invites the readers to consider, debate, and agree on the best course of action.
Comprehensive coverage of all aspects of the problem offers both interventionist and conservative approaches to treatment, psychosocial issues, economic factors, patient education, and prevention.

A new chapter on Occupational Health Guidelines keeps the reader up-to-date.
New information allows the book to expand on the insights of the previous edition, which was considered a classic text.
More social and work-related research and material provides information on these important issues.
Updated guidelines and references make this resource one of the best for current practice.
The new illustrations, graphs, tables, and education handouts present Waddell's theory in a fresh, new way that aids in the reader's understanding.

Editorial Reviews

Review

Chiropractic Journal of Australia, December 2004
"Waddell's biopsychosocial model provides a most appropriate context in which clinicians of all hues may best address the problem. There is a more empathetic view with the patients's perspective. This second edition is a nice follow-up."

Beware of the photocopied version

The book was great and quite informative, especially helpful was the diagnostic triage. But my copy was a photocopied version of the original. Feel quite cheated.

I'm disappointed. I've seen the original and certainly the book I received is an unauthorized copy. The images are of low quality. Careful not to be fooled like I was.

Arrived in a timely fashion and as advertised. Nothing more to say than that. (5 more words for the word...)

Back Pain:Reversing the epidemic.

April 29, 2000

Format: Hardcover

The book is fascinating. Some issues discussed in this book might challenge the reader and that is the main purpose. The chapter "Back pain through history" gives an important historical perspective of the matter. "Psychologic Distress" "Beliefs about Back Pain" and "Social interactions" are of enormous importance for those who deals with "Back Care". The message is: Back pain should be a benign, self-limiting symptom and rest should be avoided. I strongly recommend this book for everyone who deals with Back Care.

Brilliant!

February 29, 2008

Format: Hardcover

A comprehensive account of the state of play of the evidence-based management of low back pain. This book does not pretend to focus on the pathophysiology of back pain (for that, see Bogduk's 'Clinical Anatomy of the Lumbar Spine and Sacrum') but instead delivers a wealth of information on how the problems caused by back pain should be dealt with by patients, practitioners, purchasers, policy makers, politicians and the general public. A superb resource.
