Cover of Ranjan Roy: Psychosocial Interventions for Chronic Pain (PDF)

This book fills a major gap in the practice literature for healthcare professionals engaged in providing psychosocial care for their patients suffering from chronic pain or illness. Up to now there has been little published material on evidence-based medicine in this field. Roy’s book at last provides empirically derived support and understanding of psychosocial problems and explores the efficacy of the interventions available for patient care. A boon for clinical psychologists.
