about the book…Standing alone as the first definitive and comprehensive book on the subject, this guide describes the most recent studies on the brain-gut connection and psychosocial issues related to patients experiencing visceral pain. Bringing together leading experts from the top-tiers of the science, this source provides 33 engaging chapters and spans basic concepts in pharmacology, neurobiology, physiology, and psychology to provide a practical approach to the treatment of chronic pain.Examining a condition that affects up to 25% of the general U.S. population, this source is the only book on the subject to cover both clinical syndromes and neurobiology…ranges from basic mechanisms to diagnosis and clinical treatment of specific syndromes including inflammatory bowel disease, functional abdominal pain, dyspepsia, non-cardiac chest pain, and pelvic pain syndromes…analyzes the latest scientific advances including the role of functional imaging in patient care…integrates fundamental scientific concepts with a practical clinical approach…and supplies 250 figures, and more than 16 color photographs.about the editors...PANKAJ JAY PASRICHA is Chief, Division of Gastroenterology and Hepatology; Bassel and Frances Blanton Distinguished Professor of Internal Medicine; and Professor of Neuroscience and Cell Biology and Biomedical Engineering; University of Texas Medical Branch (UTMB), Galveston. Dr. Pasricha also heads the Enteric Neuromuscular Disorders and Pain Center at UTMB and has performed pioneering research in pain and motility disorders. Dr. Pasricha has served on numerous national gastroenterological committees and on panels for the National Institutes of Health. He received the M.D. degree (1982) from the All-India Institute of Medical Sciences, New Delhi, India, and post-graduate training in gastroenterology at the Johns Hopkins University Medical School in Baltimore, Maryland.WILLIAM D.

The spinal cord has a characteristic structure and functions that are distinct from those of the brain. Its functions are tremendously important since it modulates the peripheral sensory inputs to the dorsal horn, and it gives rise to the ascending pathways transmitting peripheral afferent inputs to the brain, and conveys the descending pathways from the brain both to the lower motor neurons, the final common pathway, and to dorsal horn sensory neurons. In spite of these vital functions, the spinal cord constitutes only a small percent age of the mass of the human central nervous system and is located far from the skin surface, which has obstructed the recording of its electrical activity. Recently, however, important advances have been made in several recording techniques, including epidural recording or averaging methods, allowing both sensory and motor evoked spinal cord potentials in man to be recorded. This volume is based on the papers presented at the Fourth International Symposium on Spinal Cord Monitoring and Electrodiagnosis. Each of these international symposia has brought together many of the specialists involved in this research, with an important increase in the number of participants since the first symposium was held in Toyko in 1981. At the past symposia several attempts were made to standardize data, techniques, and clinical applications and to integrate the new findings into patient care.
