i read this cover to cover. then i took the pain board recert 10/11. i passed in 1993 then 2003 so it was time again.By pain doc
i think i passed the exam. not all of the questions on the exam were in this book.
it was a good review that i read in about 40 hours.
the title says "essentials" and if you compare it with Bonica it really is a summary as opposed to Bonica which is
much more comprehensive (and is about five times bigger).
i think the definitive pain medicine review book for the boards has yet to be written.
this book is up to date, does a better job than the #2 edition, so maybe it will work for you.
I'm Board Certified in Pain Medicine & will be taking the ABA Recertification test later this year. This book is an excellent & enjoyable up to date review of the subject. When I initially took the ABA test 9 years ago, there was no core text that was anywhere near as good. I actually read a good part of the then current Bonica text to prepare for the exam in addition to doing different banks of questions. This book, as many reviewers have noted, is really the best cover to cover read in our field. Personally, I do not like the current edition of Bonica as much as the previous one, as it looses sight of the forest for the trees in many of the subjects covered, which I didn't feel was the case previously. This book, on the other hand, is a good balance between giving an overview of each subject with an appropriate amount of details. This book is an excellent text book as well as a review for the ABA test. It will also be useful for lecture preperation. For ABA test candidates, I would recommend this book together with PainExam.com & the Dannemiller Certification Coach on-line at [...]By drs
