Nicola Eaton, Nursing Standard, 1999

"Slim but fulsome: a primer on pain...a well–researched and compiled book"

Nursing Times

"An excellent text book for any practitioner new to the role of pain management who wishes to expand their knowledge." Nurse Education Today

"...this text should prove a valuable addition to the library shelves and, ideally, individual purchase for both the general nurse as well as those seeking to pursue pain relief as a specialized area of care." Journal of Advanced Nursing
