Reviews
“This is a superb reference on the anatomy and physiology of headache as currently understood and serves as a resource for researchers and clinicians who work with headache patients. The editors and authors provide an extremely well researched and organized book. … chapters are extraordinarily well organized, defining terms as the information is presented and moving into newer concepts in each chapter. … It is a tremendous addition to the store of knowledge in the research and treatment of headaches.” (Vincent F. Carr, Doody’s Book Reviews, July, 2015)
