Reviews
"The volume is clearly written, well illustrated, attractively produced, and benefits from a good index...The book will
be of great interest to clinical neurophysiologists or sleep specialists and those in training in these subspecialties
as well as to clinicians responsible for the care of patients with a variety of neurologic disorders that may lead to
disturbances in sleep, including specialists in neuromuscular diseases. It can be strongly recommended." - Muscle and
Nerve, review of the previous edition


"Dr. Chokroverty invited many of the pioneers of progress in sleep medicine to contribute to the second edition of his
book. Not surprisingly, it continues to be one of the best available reference works on sleep disorders. Most of the 35
chapters could stand alone as monographs worthy of separate publication. Indeed, despite the explosive growth that has
occurred in information on sleep disorders, Dr. Chokroverty provides us with a comprehensive review of the wide
spectrum of sleep pathology. Anyone with an interest in sleep disorders medicine should find this book helpful.” -
