Back pain is something that A LOT of people deal with on a daily basis - be it something chronic, work-related, or just the random injury.  Having been in the fitness field for 20+ years, back issues are something that I've not only seen with trainees, but have even dealt with myself.This is a great primer on the various types of back pain and associated treatments.  The book presents itself in a clear, concise, and easy-to-understand manner - perfect for "regular people" that haven't spent a ton of time perusing scientific research or other such materials.While this book shouldn't be used as a replacement for a diagnosis by your doctor or PT, this *is* a good book to not only educate you on what issues you might be dealing with, how to proceed, and even what sort of treatments might be right for you.Great overall book.  Highly recommended.
