Reviews

Academic Pain Medicine is a good introduction and an at-a-glance guide to pain medicine for relative novices, including medical students. Academic Pain Medicine is evidently already being used in some institutions as a textbook for medical students. I will be delighted if this book contributes to inspiring future pain experts who practice globally. (Kazuhiro Watanabe, Anesthesia & Analgesia, Vol. 131 (1), July, 2020) The intended audience is pain fellows in training and those in the matriculation process for pain fellowship: residents and medical students. ... this book has sections on regenerative medicine, which is not as well covered in other books that may serve as a platform for further study for pain fellows.
