This uniquely written title presents both the fascinating biography of Dr. John Loeser, a visionary pioneer in the field of pain medicine, as well as the compelling account of the birth and evolution of pain medicine in the United States and beyond. In this captivating work, readers are taken down the path of an extraordinary man who not only shaped the discipline of pain medicine but also embraced a multitude of passions, leaving an indelible mark on those lucky enough to know him. Prior to the pivotal role Loeser played in helping pain medicine emerge as a recognized field in the 1980s, he had already established himself as a highly respected neurosurgeon and co-author of a definitive text on neuroembryology. However, when he became immersed in the world of pain medicine, an entirely new frontier beckoned-one that held the promise of reducing human suffering and revolutionizing the way we understand and manage pain. Soon Loeser was deeply engaged in pain research and clinical practice and was advocating for better diagnostics, cutting-edge technologies, and a deeper understanding of pain mechanisms.
