Klappentext zu „Functional Illness of the Head and Neck “
This book uniquely discusses an approach to illnesses for which the causes are unknown. It fills the gaps in the literature by relaying research on functional illness, identifying and assessing various options, and indicating some decision-making suggestions that should help clinicians and patients think about therapy. Special considerations for functional illness include "probability" explanations based on the experience of others, serious consideration of the severity of symptoms before treatments are applied, and balancing the risks, costs, and consequences of treatment; including the patient's thoughts and attitudes is critical for success in treating functional illness.
Unique and comprehensive, Functional Illness is an invaluable reference for medical physicians of all specialties who wish to understand better and identify functional illness symptoms.

Pressezitat
"The trainees will still invest in atlases showing what can be achieved with a high speed drill, a laser, a robot or an endoscope but this truly novel book would prove a far more useful exercise. The topic will make up a significant proportion ... of a career and the most senior of us would benefit from reading this. ... I felt sure this would be an invaluable addition and it proves so." (L Flood, The Journal of Laryngology & Otology, March 3, 2023)
