Description
This volume in the Handbook of Clinical Neurology (Series Editors:: Michael J. Aminoff, Department of Neurology, University of California, San Francisco, USA; François Boller, Bethesda, USA; Dick F. Swaab, Netherlands Institute for Neuroscience, Amsterdam, the Netherlands) gives a comprehensive account of pain mechanisms and pain syndromes of neurological interest. Sections address the physiological aspects of pain, the pathophysiological mechanisms, clinically relevant pain syndromes and the treatment of neuropathic pain. Disorders often kept separate from classical; neurology, such as complex regional pain, spinal pain and musculoskeletal pain are included. This volume will be invaluable for both the clinical neurologist and neuroscience researcher.
