This review is from: Snoring From A to ZZZZ: Proven Cures for the Night's Worst Nuisance (Paperback)

Rarely do I quit reading a book -- I usually always go to the end. This title was the exception. Having a snoring problem and seeking some insight, I purchased "Snoring from A to Z" to learn more about my condition. While the author does give some general information in the early part of the book, the rest of the pages are nothing more than a reference guide for various medical techniques to remedy snoring. None of these techniques could be done by one's self -- each would require a doctor's supervision and administration. I'd recommend saving your money and passing on this title -- go to some sleep disorder sites on the Web, or just discuss the matter with your physician.

This excellent book about snoring and related sleep disorders is written by an ENT surgeon. Although it contains specific medical terminology, it is written in a very humorous fashion, complete with some cartoons. It is quite thorough, and will help guide the reader to appropriate snoring interventions.
