Customer Reviews
this is the best sleep book ever
I find this book full of practical information about sleep medicine. The information is delivered in the form of clinical cases. The information ranges from interpreting polysomnograms to management of patients.
This is a very useful book for the clinician taking care of patients with sleep disorders as well as those interpreting sleep studies.

Great book.
I used this as a supplement to my board review course and notebook. I also used the Butkow (sp?) PSG atlas from 1996-ish. This book was a great resource and covered a lot of material that I did subsequently find on the ABIM Sleep Medicine Exam. I don't know if I passed, yet, but, if I do, I'll attribute a big part of it to this book.

Excellent introduction to sleep medicine
For a beginner in sleep this is very helpful.Some redundancy, but facilitates learning through repetition.

Sleep medicine pearls
This an excellent book for whom ever wants to know about sleep medicine. Covers most of the toppics, not much about children sleep problem. Is best book to start with for sleep medicine as rotation, fellowship or general knowledge. Is very easy to read, may be in 5-7 days you can read the book once. By reading this book when you see patients with sleep problem you can dx, ddx and tx them. By knowing this book you can interpret sleep studies with very minor difficulty and after a short while you feel very confidenct. I should specially thank the writer of this book for an excellent well done job. I very highly recommend this book, If you need one book to know about sleep medicine that would be ONLY THIS BOOK without second thought.
