Reviews
Feeling aches and pains? You're not alone. But if you think you've got ar thritis, don't be so surethis is David son's message. Soft-tissue rheumatism, which includes bursitis, tendinitis, car pal tunnel syndrome, tennis elbow, and a host of other frequently treatable con ditions, often is confused by the layper son with arthritis. This is a very infor mative book. The language level is a comfortable one. Plenty of case histor ies aid the reader in identifying symp toms. The book is worth the price for its no-nonsense treatment of the sub ject of pain, with its emotional and physical components. Highly recom mended for public libraries.
