Descripción

Accessible to all health care professionals, this text provides a guide to understanding and managing back pain and is one of the premier examples of a biopsychosocial approach to medicine. The content challenges unsubstantiated beliefs regarding the best way to treat and manage back pain and presents an interdisciplinary debate on the subject. In a society where patients are demanding more effective approaches to their problems, this resource offers a radical rethink, a necessary step to achieving a more effective method of treatment. The unorthodox spirit of this material places this book at the center of the revolution taking place in the back pain area.

  • Gordon Waddell is the world authority on the topic of the back pain revolution.
  • The content addresses huge problems of concern to many disciplines and governments.
  • The unbiased, open-minded view looks at the issues and the evidence and invites the readers to consider, debate, and agree on the best course of action.
  • Comprehensive coverage of all aspects of the problem offers both interventionist and conservative approaches to treatment, psychosocial issues, economic factors, patient education, and prevention.
  • New chapter on Occupational Health Guidelines involving new co-author
  • Chapters on Social Interactions and A New Clinical Model both completely rewritten
  • Chapters on Clinical Guidelines and Information and Advice for Patients both completely rewritten with new co-authors
  • Major new research findings incorporated throughout
  • The 'message', the size of the book, the overall style, and the target audience are be unchanged from the successful first edition.
  • The simple style and readability of the first edition has been carefully maintained.
