Index
"The book primarily functions as a compendium of general modern sleep medicine. This new edition has been enriched by the addition of other editors. The book does not attempt to be a comprehensive review of sleep medicine, but rather an atlas of functions and graphic material. It is useful for mid-level practitioners, sleep fellows, Ph.D. researchers, and attending physicians with special interest in sleep medicine." Reviewed by Sleep Breath, Oct 2014
"...one of its best features is excellent online access (to all the pictures, graphs, polysomnography traces and patient videos). There are also several patient interviews – a really useful resource, and a key change to this second edition of the atlas, for a speciality where there are very few physical signs and the history is rarely taught at undergraduate level."
