Reference:
Price: US$24.95
The aim of this book is to discuss contextual factors and the mechanisms at play during the management of musculoskeletal disorders. Knowledge and understanding of these factors can help clinicians to better understand their patients, themselves, and the interactions taking place during patient-clinician exchanges. The awareness of these dispositions can help physicians improve themselves and the care they deliver to patients, leading to a true patient-centered collaborative therapeutic alliance. Physician-patient collaboration is, in turn, associated with better patient adherence and outcomes, and care, delivered in a positive context, produces better outcomes.

A Great and Practical Guide
Michael Vlanin provides better approaches in addressing musculoskeletal care. We often see new advances in the field, but Vlanin points out that it's not always in the patient's view. It's sometimes just a general view. The author points out in looking at the patient's sleep patterns, if they're depressed, etc. etc. The graphics were helpful in picturing what doctors should look for in their patients. I know what to say so my doctor can understand me better. It's a great guide and I hope this book furthers conversations about looking at medical advances through the patient's viewpoint.
