The placebo effect continues to fascinate scientists, scholars,
and clinicians, resulting in an impressive amount of research,
mainly in the field of pain. While recent experimental and clinical
studies have unraveled salient aspects of the neurobiological
substrates and clinical relevance of pain and placebo analgesia, an
authoritative source remained lacking until now. By presenting and
integrating a broad range of research, "Placebo and Pain" enhances
readers knowledge about placebo and nocebo effects, reexamines the
methodology of clinical trials, and improves the therapeutic
approaches for patients suffering from pain.
