Both pain and addiction are tremendous public health problems.
Practitioners of every stripe say that they learned precious little
about pain or addiction in their training and readily admit that
instruction on the interface of pain and addiction is nonexistent.
The recent problem of prescription drug abuse has only served to
highlight the fact that these two worlds need unificationthose who
treat pain must be informed about the risks of controlled
substances and those who treat addiction need to better and more
fully understand their benefits. Nowhere is the pooled knowledge of
pain management and addiction medicine brought together to allow
for a greater appreciation of the risks of addiction when treating
people with pain and the pain problems of those with chemical
dependency. This major new volume brings this vast knowledge base
together, presenting an array of perspectives by the foremost
thought leaders at the interface of pain and chemical dependency,
and is the most comprehensive resource on the subject to
date.
There have been an increasing number of seminars devoted to this
topic and a new society, The International Society on Pain and
Chemical Dependency, has recently been formed, and this volume is
destined to become the classic text on this multidisciplinary
subject. It will appeal to anesthesiologists, neurologists, rehab
physicians, palliative care staff, pain center physicians, and
psychologists.
