Recenzje

"This is a volume with a lot in it and a lot to offer to many who read it. It is worth taking it for a spin and using some of these 'talking points' on a regular basis. Hopefully these techniques help some of your patients and in the process, help readers, including myself, understand the important role humanity plays for patients who entrust their care to us daily." (R. Allan Purdy, Headache - The Journal of Head and Face Pain, Vol. 57 (9), October, 2017)
"This is a book that opens up possibilities for people with headache and those who care for them. Dawn A. Marcus, MD, and Duren Michael Ready, MD, provide a welcome addition to the essential titles for helping primary care and headache specialists provide the best care for those with common and complex headache disorders." (Robert A. Bonakder, Practical Pain Management, practicalpainmanagement.com, August, 2017)
