(More customer reviews)This is one of the worst cut and past jobs I have ever seen. Touted as a seminal and original work with loads of new research it is nothing more than a hodgepodge of other studies, many of them outdated. The author compounds his fraud by adding no value. If he had taken these studies and attempted to compile and explain them in some coherent manner I would have bee less distressed.
If you have cluster headaches like I do, I suggest you look elsewhere for the definitive book. I think I may end up writing it.

Cluster headache affects 0.1 per cent of the population and is a severe form of primary headache. This volume of Frontiers in Headache Research is the only up-to-date and comprehensive review of the condition and its related disorders. The book begins with a discussion of the basic circadian biology of the condition followed by an overview of relevant epidemiological studies. Cluster headache is then described in comparison with related disorders, including paroxysmal hemicrania, SUNCT, hemicrania continua and hypnic headache, and the system of classification discussed. The volume then moves on to look at the wealth of basic research into cluster headache, including, animal studies, work on the autonomic nervous system in man, neuropeptide research, studies of biological rhythms, the associated endocrinology, information derived from neuroimaging and the influence of genetic factors. The final sections of the book examine acute treatment, prophylaxis, the potential for surgical treatment and the opportunities for further innovative therapies. The contributing authors are all international specialists in this field.
