Providing comprehensive, well-illustrated coverage of both the scientific underpinnings of pain and up-to-date clinical management, Bonica’s Management of Pain, Sixth Edition has been the gold standard resource in the field for more than 70 years.

Edited by Drs. James P. Rathmell, Robert R. Edwards, and Christopher J.

An international group of contributors from every area of pain medicine and research provides current, clinically oriented coverage of the entire field in a reader-friendly format.
  • Focuses on state-of-the art pain science and pain management, all substantially updated with theoretical advancements and contemporary therapies that have emerged since the previous edition
  • Addresses the evolving evidence base, controversies, and clinical realities surrounding opioid therapy, as well as global disparities in diagnosis, treatment, and availability of essential analgesic medications
  • Reflects recent advances in neuromodulation, interventional therapies, psychological treatments, and multimodal rehabilitation
  • Discusses the economic, political, legal, ethical, and sociological considerations of pain; evaluation of the pain patient; pain conditions; methods for symptomatic control; and provision of pain treatment
  • Shares the knowledge and expertise of global experts who are leaders in the fields of basic science, clinical medicine (including anesthesiology, neurology, physical medicine and rehabilitation, palliative care, and more), psychology, surgery, pharmacology, ethics, health policy, and implementation science
