About this book
From reviews of Deer, eds., Comprehensive Treatment of Chronic Pain by Medical, Interventional, and Integrative Approaches:
"Comprehensive Treatment of Chronic Pain by Medical, Interventional, and Integrative Approaches is a major textbook...
[I]t should be a part of all departmental libraries and in the reference collection of pain fellows and pain practitioners. In fact, this text could be to pain as Miller is to general anesthesia."

Reviews
“This is a neuromodulation textbook of neurosurgical approaches to chronic pain syndromes. … I recommend this book for neurosurgeons, anesthesiologists, neurologists, and those of us who work in Pain Management. Residents and fellows could also benefit from this text/atlas.” (Joseph J. Grenier, Amazon.com, July, 2015)
“This compendium of interventional techniques for the management of chronic pain conditions focuses primarily on the procedural aspects. … The audience is interventionist pain physicians, and both in training and experienced pain physicians will find it helpful. … This is a nice book that covers most pain procedures. … Compared to other procedure oriented books, this one has more text, more practical tips, and covers a wider array of procedures.” (Tariq M. Malik, Doody’s Book Reviews, February, 2015)
