Price: US$34.95
The aim of this book is to discuss contextual factors and the mechanisms at play during the management of musculoskeletal disorders. Knowledge and understanding of these factors can help clinicians to better understand their patients, themselves, and the interactions taking place during patient-clinician exchanges. The awareness of these dispositions can help physicians improve themselves and the care they deliver to patients, leading to a true patient-centered collaborative therapeutic alliance. Physician-patient collaboration is, in turn, associated with better patient adherence and outcomes, and care, delivered in a positive context, produces better outcomes.

Combining Theory with Practical Application
We often see new approaches to address musculoskeletal care, but are those approaches based on real patients' experiences? Michael Vianin, in this book, describes a new perspective on the management of musculoskeletal disorders and pain syndromes. What is more important is that he has developed this based on the experiences and characteristics of the patients.
The dispositionalism model that the author explores is very useful, providing the opportunity to understand aspects like sleep quality, depression, self-efficacy, or how clinicians should dispose themselves, specifically emphasizing key concepts like rapport and building a collaborative approach with the patient. What is most valuable about the book is that it combines theory with practical application. This book is for a variety of healthcare professionals. It focuses on the patient and the patient-healthcare professional relationship. This focus is notable, and if you want to improve these skills and deepen your understanding, this is the perfect book.
