Review:

"In an age in which the management of low back pain is primarily driven by market forces, this book provides a clear, logical approach based on clinical findings." -- The New England Journal of Medicine "This book is right on target when it repeatedly emphasizes that a careful history is by far the most important aspect of assessing low back pain...The chapters on acute low back pain and the locked back are excellent ...The author stresses that diagnosis and indications are the keys to therapy.... Management, therefore, includes patient education, weight reduction, exercise, bed rest, bracing, manipulation, cryotherapy and injection. Easy to follow throughout, the book contains excellent reproductions of radiographs, photos and diagrams." -- American Family Physician "A very stimulating book matched by a pleasing and uniform style... attractive... well illustrated..." -- Bone and Joint Surgery
