Image-Guided Spine Interventions Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)the book is really new. the content is good.
the shipping was fast besides the "regular" shiping.
the price was really lower than in europe's sites or librarys.
the only thing I was not expecting was the tax for the book to enter in europe, but this was not an item related to amazone.

Product Description:
This practical guide thoroughly discusses both well-established and new interventions that are applied to the spine for the purpose of pain relief. Traditionally, pain procedures were in the limited purview of the pain anesthesiologist. Only a portion of these procedures were image guided. The growth in utilization of spine intervention and the realization that image guidance improves outcomes and safety has produced a need for this cutting-edge book. This book is an ideal aid for radiologists and other physicians who deal with back pain.

Introduction to Behavioral Pharmacology Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)This is a superb text which goes into great detail of explaining a multitude of effects drugs have on nonhuman and human systems. I know the author, Dr. Alan Poling, as he was my professor for Behavioral Pharmacology at Western Michigan University in the fall of 2007. A must for the field of behavioral pharmacology, and I believe to be a good reference text for pharmacology and medicine as well. Gives some great insight into behavior analysis, operant condition, and respondent conditioning, and brings you up to speed before going into the behavioral aspects of drugs. It speaks to many levels, from the novice undergraduate, to the graduate student and beyond, and is supplemented with charts and data from his lab experiments. There's also some discussion of behavioral neuroscience as well, which can be helpful in descriving how the drugs affect the Central Nervous System.

Product Description:
There are hundreds, if not thousands, of substances that are used to modify behavior. While different classes of substances have known effects, one has only to see a group of people drinking to excess to recognize that not everyone responds in the same way to a given substance. Why do substances have the behavioral effects they do, and why do individuals vary in their responses to them? Thisbook provides a conceptual framework for answering such questions.It includes the following chapters:

Thomas Byrne and Alan Poling on Principles of Behavior AnalysisAlan Poling and Thomas Byrne on Principles of PharmacologyLisa Baker, Thomas Morgan, and Alan Poling on NeuropharmacologyAlan Poling and Thomas Byrne on Assessing Drug Effects in Non-HumansSusan Snycerski, Sean Laraway, and Alan Poling on Basic Research with HumansAlan Poling, Thomas Byrne, and Thomas Morgan on the Stimulus Properties of DrugsAlan Poling on the Variables that Influence Drug ActionScott H.

Atlas of Interventional Pain Management with DVD Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)This book is a cash grab.Seeking to cash in on a previously well written book with Winnie, Waldman seriously insults the intelligence of his would be readers.Not only are the diagrams cell-shaded, but they were over simplified to the point of being useless.Also I recall at one point he advocates using steroids in his approach to the stellate ganglion in the treatment of CRPS, no safe practitioner would do this.Nor is there any valid evidence to support this.I have repeatedly cautioned anyone interested in chronic pain from buying this book.

Pain Medicine and Management: Just the Facts Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)Numerous mistakes that should have been found in the most basic copy review.Page 95 for example - "Biopatch dressing impregnated with Hibiclens" - one branded product impregnated with another branded product?!Biopatch is a delivery system for chlorhexidine gluconate, not Hibiclens, which also uses CHG.Takes away from the credibility of the book.

McGraw-Hill Specialty Board Review Pain Medicine Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)It's readily apparent the authors were busy in their clinical careers... so much so that they neglected to spend any time proofreading this book.It's a typical "write some random questions and we'll call it a board review book to make ourselves famous" book by physicians.There are numerous wrong answers to simplistic and redundant questions.There are so many wrong answers that, as one reviewer mentioned, they are often easy to spot; however, in the course of 800+ questions, do you really want to have to recheck answers in textbooks and other sources to verify their accuracy?I didn't appreciate it and wished I had known this prior to using this.In spite of this book, I easily passed the pain boards.Final words of advice: 1. Use a different pain review book(but alas, they all have their faults) and 2. You're better off reading a pain textbook and simple MRI book for the pain boards if you have the time.
