Review quotes
"This book should find a place in every Pain Clinic as a useful guide to the common procedures carried out there. It brings together all the techniques in one handy volume..useful to trainees wishing to learn about them and also to experienced practitioners who may wish to remind themselves about a technique that they perform only infrequently." -British Journal of Anaesthesi
"The consistent, easy-to-follow, repetitive nature of each technique is accompanied by excellent photographs and illustrations that serve to highlight the anatomical structures and relationships that must be fully understood in order to achieve success." -Doody's Journals
"This is a highly practical step-by-step guide to procedures for chronic pain. It is suitable for the practicing pain physician, teh anesthesiologist with an interest in chronic pain and to residents in training....a very helpful book to have in any pain clinic library." -Amazon customer review
