Addresses the history and treatment of backache, taking the 'Hadlerian' approach to backaches and the backache treatment industry in order to separate the helpful from the hype. This title argues that regional back pain is overly medicalized by doctors, surgeons, and alternative therapists who purvey various treatment regimens.
