We write off restless nights as a way of life, not realizing that sleep ranks in importance with diet and exercise as vital to our health. Many Americans - 70 million of us, to be exact - are sleep-deficient. We often regard sleep as not critical but extracurricular and optional. This attitude is dangerous and detrimental to our health. This book gives the sleepless what they need: real, substantive information from a source that is trusted by people all over the world. It provides a straightforward and clear examination of sleep problems and serves as a complete home reference for anyone.

This is the only book anyone should need.,
By Midwest Book Review (Oregon, WI USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Getting a Good Night's Sleep (A Cleveland Clinic Guide) (Cleveland Clinic Guides) (Paperback)
Nancy Foldvary-Schaefer, D.O.'s GETTING A GOOD NIGHT'S SLEEP may sound like another guide to insomnia, but it's much more: it offers advice from the head of the Sleep Medicine Program at the Cleveland Clinic who comes with medical background and expertise to her name. From why you can't sleep and can't stay awake to different forms of sleep disorders, their risks, and treatment options, this is the only book anyone should need.
