"Academic Pain Medicine is a good introduction and an at-a-glance guide to pain medicine for relative novices, including medical students. Academic Pain Medicine is evidently already being used in some institutions as a textbook for medical students. I will be delighted if this book contributes to inspiring future pain experts who practice globally." (Kazuhiro Watanabe, Anesthesia & Analgesia, Vol. 131 (1), July, 2020)
