DAS HWS-Schleudertrauma- Moderne Medizinische Erkenntnisse is a significant contribution to both professionals and patients involved with complaints secondary to trauma of the head and neck and the whiplash syndrome. The table of contents reflects the concept of the authors: the necessity of a team approach for patient complaints secondary to trauma of the head and neck. The coverage of the topic is complete. The text is divided into 10 sections and presents a thorough analysis of the epidemiology and demographics, underlying basic scientific principals of anatomy and physiology, and the ensuing pathology after whiplash injury. Classification systems are reviewed, and new ones are presented, as are descriptions of both early and late sequelae of the whiplash syndrome.
