This book was created under a directive from Veritas Medicus, the Foundation of the American Academy of Disability Evaluating Physicians (now the International Academy of Independent Medical Evaluators, iaime.org). The purpose of the book is to show that “the development of the complex regional pain syndrome (CRPS) construct has overall proven to be a failure. As such, the term should be abandoned and effort should turn toward determining what this is as opposed to describing what it is not.” (p. 3)
