A great overall insomnia reference for clinicians
Insomnia is a daily complaint among psyhotherapy patients, but msot of us as clinicans seem to have little to offer in terms of empirically validated treatments. This book gives a thorough review of the causes and types of insomnia, as well as viable treatment options. My only complaint is the price--sixty-five plus dollars seems a little steep for a 120 page book, no...

Pseudointellectual clinical garbage
In my search for a good background source of literature on insomnia I got my hands on the entire subject collection at our local university. This book is a large authoritatively looking volume (as most other books listed below). I scanned through the chapters, index and contents - there's not a word about one of the most common causes of insomnia - metal...

Pseudointellectual clinical garbage,
This review is from: Insomnia: A Clinician's Guide to Assessment and Treatment (Hardcover)
In my search for a good background source of literature on insomnia I got my hands on the entire subject collection at our local university.This book is a large authoritatively looking volume (as most other books listed below). I scanned through the chapters, index and contents - there's not a word about one of the most common causes of insomnia - metal neurotoxicity. Not a word! Not a word about mercury, cadmium, thallium etc. Instead this "clinical" book is just a worthless collection of useless, diagnostically unhelpful facts regarding every single aspect of sleep. There's little about "DIAGNOSIS" and everything about which drugs to push on you. If you are a medical student or a medical professional who are examined in this field - go ahead with it. Otherwise, the book is as shocking as the value of advice you will likely to get from qualified practitioners - they will regurgitate whatever they remember from these useless books mindlessly learned back in their university days. But it's Garbage-In-Garbage-out, that's it.
