Overview

This book fills a major gap in the practice literature for healthcare professionals engaged in providing psychosocial care for their patients suffering from chronic pain or illness. Up to now there has been little published material on evidence-based medicine in this field. Roy's book at last provides empirically derived support and understanding of psychosocial problems and explores the efficacy of the interventions available for patient care. A boon for clinical psychologists.

<p>From the reviews: <p><p> Ranjan Roy s Psychosocial Interventions for Chronic Pain: In Search of Evidence is a book that s largely about these correlates of pain and the psychosocial methods used to treat them. Readers who take a broad approach to pain will find plenty here to inform their thinking and clinical activities. Clinicians should use the best available evidence in developing treatment programs for specific individual patients. If we follow his advice, our patients will benefit. (Alan G. Glaros, PsycCRITIQUES, Vol. 54 (31), August, 2009)
