"Welcome to the third edition of Managing Pain in Children and Young People: A Clinical Guide. In this edition we have done things a little differently. Our aim remains to pull together current evidence for managing pain in children and young people (CYP) in an easily accessible format. However, we wanted the book to be seen as relevant to students and interdisciplinary team members in children's pain around the globe. To reflect this broader focus, the editorial team now includes a medic (physician), a psychologist and two nurses.
