Back pain and back injury is an extremely common problem, producing
chronic, debilitating symptoms for sufferers, and resulting in
millions of pounds of lost revenue in absence from work and paid in
compensation for spinal injuries. The Medico-Legal Back is the
first book to address all aspects of the problem for a legal
readership, in a clear, concise and reader-friendly style. It does
away with the need to search for and then extract complex
information from many different sources, and as such will be an
indispensable guide to the problem for all lawyers, judges and
medico-legal experts, as well as being of value to the orthopaedic
surgeon with an interest in the spine. Of particular value is the
use throughout the book of analogies drawn on anatomical
technicalities and common movements, situations and incidents of
everyday life. Fully illustrated throughout, with real scans using
imaging modalities, and line diagrams generated especially for this
title, The Medico-Legal Back should be on the shelves of all
medico-legal personnel at all levels of expertise and experience.
