About this title

Synopsis

The last decade has seen much progress in understanding the mechanisms of pain, and advances in basic science have seen translational research leading to volunteer studies and clinical trials. Despite this drawing together of molecules and maladies, the basic science can appear overly complex and impenetrable for clinicians.

This book aims to cover key topical molecular, anatomical, physiological, and pharmacological studies on the basic science in a straightforward and accessible manner for all medical and allied professionals with an interest in pain. The book is dedicated to Jean-Marie Besson, who has always attempted to further dialogue between clinicians and basic scientists.
