Reference:
Price: US$24.95
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.

“Dispositionalism in Musculoskeletal Care” by Michael Vianin is an essential book for those of us working in the field of musculoskeletal disorders and pain management. In this book, the author introduces the concept of "dispositionalism," an approach that I personally really like because it shows the importance of understanding the unique characteristics of each clinical case to optimize patient care and that is exactly what medicine should focus on today.

I definitely recommend this book because it has tools to be practically implemented in patients.
