A book written by clinicians for clinicians that presents a broad view of the clinical applications of opioids; it covers the pharmacology of opioids and its clinical application in a wide range of situations from acute to chronic cancer and non-cancer pain across ages from paediatric to geriatric populations.

For the busy clinician who has to manage pain either as a generalist or a specialist, this is a very handy text to keep within reach.
