Hardcover. Zustand: Like New. First Edition. A firm and square hardback with sharp corners and strong joints, just showing a few very minor cosmetic rubs. Hence a non-text page has a small 'damaged' stamp. Despite such this book is actually in nearly new condition and appears unread. Thus the contents are crisp, fresh and tight; no pen-marks. Now offered for sale at a very sensible price.…

Functional implications of spinal and forebrain procedures for the treatment of chronic pain; Index. "Pain is a subject of increasing scientific and clinical interest. Studies of non-primate animal models have contributed greatly to our knowledge of pain. Nonetheless, investigators often refer to basic neuroscientific and behavioral studies of humans and non-human primates to emphasize the relevance of their results to human pain. Likewise, the interpretation of human pain studies and clinical observations relies upon understanding the relevant anatomy and physiology as gleaned from animal, and especially primate, research. Here, Lenz, Casey, Jones and Willis review the neurobiology of nociception in monkeys and pain in humans, to provide a firm basis for understanding the mechanisms of normal and pathological human pain. This book is essential reading for anyone interested in pain research.".…
