Abstract

Although back pain is not a new clinical problem, it has in recent years been recognised as a major source of disability and is now one of the most frequently encountered complaints in general practice. The quantity of research in this field has increased considerably over the last few years, and it is now recognised as an area of special importance. A major problem for workers in back pain research is the multidisciplinary nature of the subject, extending as it does from basic science through many different branches of clinical medicine. The literature is copious and is often difficult to cross-correlate, even with computer assistance. We should, therefore, welcome any book which attempts to smooth the pathways between the disciplines.
