Handbook of Pediatric Chronic Pain: Current Science and Integrative Practice (Perspectives on Pain in Psychology)
From the reviews:“The first 11 chapters describe conditions of chronic pain in children, and further 12 chapters review ways of management. This is a book on topics not described in detail in textbooks, but encountered in the general praxis of general pediatricians and several specialties. Also of interest for pediatric psychologists and psychiatrists.” (Pediatric Endocrinology Reviews (PER), Vol. 10 (2), 2013)“The audience includes pediatric anesthesiologists and any pediatric clinicians who are involved with pain management of children. It can serve as a reference for students, residents, and fellows. The book is exhaustive, offering a balanced and practical overview of pediatric management by academic, experienced faculty. The spectrum of coverage and relationship of pathophysiology to diagnosis and management are very impressive. … This is a well-written and very useful book for clinicians involved in pediatric pain management.” (Rajasekharan Warrier, Doody’s Book Reviews, August, 2012)“The book lays the groundwork for understanding chronic conditions such as headache, functional abdominal pain, pelvic pain, and cancer-related pain. … most useful for readers in the pediatric primary care setting or for those interested in initiating pediatric pain management programs. … This thoughtfully written book provides useful insights for clinicians treating pediatric as well as adult patients with chronic pain syndromes. … an outstanding textbook that provides a foundation of knowledge for the assessment and management of chronic pain in the pediatric population.” (Devi E.
