Sleep Medicine Essentials

Praise for Teofilo L. Lee-Chiong's Sleep Medicine Essentials "I highly recommend this book to the clinicians and medical students who would like to sleep well knowing that they have done everything possible to make their patients' sleep restful and healthy." --Irina V. Zhdanova, MD, PhD, from a review in The New England Journal of Medicine "No other publication in the field can begin to compare with the breadth or depth of [this book]." --From a review in PsycCRITIQUES Sleep Medicine Essentials is a concise, handy, practical, and affordable handbook on adult and pediatric sleep medicine. It covers forty topic-focused chapters written by an international panel of contemporary authorities. It is comprehensive enough for daily reference, with chapters on insomnia, sleep apnea, narcolepsy and other disorders of excessive sleepiness, parasomnias, circadian sleep disorders, sleep in the elderly, sleep in children, sleep among women, and sleep in medical, psychiatric, and neurological disorders. Organized in short chapters for convenience and enhanced readability, it follows the order and topical presentation of the recently instated new sleep medicine board exams, making it a highly effective review for the sleep medicine board. Sleep Medicine Essentials is the perfect complement to the larger, previously published book, Sleep: A Comprehensive Handbook (Wiley).
