Editorial Reviews
From Library Journal
First-time authors Jacobs and Wiedman bring two complementary and responsible viewpoints to the topic of insomnia. Both have suffered from insomnia, write extensively about the ineffectiveness and sometime harmful consequences of sleeping pills, and suggest starting treatment by keeping a sleep diary. Jacobs, a professor at Harvard Medical School and founder of the Behavioral Medicine Insomnia Program, promotes a drug-free program of healthy sleep patterns based on biofeedback, relaxation, positive thinking, and good sleep habits. Wiedman, a mortgage broker by trade, suggests a very simple three-step plan. While the two books offer similar information, Jacobs's scholarly manner will satisfy those looking for an authoritative answer, while Wiedman's more informal approach will appeal to readers seeking something more personal; Wiedman also includes an excellent annotated list of Internet resources. Both titles are highly recommended for growing consumer health collections, but librarians should be aware that other recent works on this topic by Theresa DiGeronimo, Jodi Mindell, and Gary Zammit (LJ 6/1/97) may already be on the shelves.?Kelly Hensley, East Tennessee State Univ.

Review
"Gregg Jacobs's book is a medical miracle- a breakthrough program with the scientifically proven power to help you sleep again." -- Dr. Joan Borysenko, author of the New York Times bestseller Minding the Body, Mending the Mind
"In Say Good Night to Insomnia, Dr. Jacobs clearly tells you what to do about insomnia and how to do it. In a user-friendly, practical, organized fashion, he expertly guides you through a six-week program for overcoming insomnia. You will also find that Say Good Night to Insomnia is more than just a book on insomnia; it is about improving yourself and your life. His program represents not only the future treatment of insomnia; it is the approach that should be adopted by all health care practitioners. Insomniacs everywhere finally have a safe, highly effective alternative to sleeping pills. I am confident that this program will change your life as it has for so many of Dr. Jacobs's patients." -- Dr. Herbert Benson, Associate Professor of Medicine, Harvard Medical School and author of The Relaxation Response and Timeless Healing --This text refers to an out of print or unavailable edition of this title.
