About the Book

This is a practitioner's guide to fibromyalgia syndrome and its treatment. FMS was only officially recognised by W.H.O. as a syndrome in 1990. Since then, much research has been undertaken, and the pool of knowledge is growing rapidly. This is the only text that distills information, and relates it specifically to the problems of assessment, diagnosis and management as confronted by the practitioners. It provides a multidisciplinary perspective on this multifaceted and frequently encountered syndrome.
