Welcome information
The book was informative and easy to understand. The author seemed sensitive to the suffering of patients with sleep disorders. He seemed like the answer to long suffering. The information from the book filled in the gaps for question I've had for many years. I was so excited I decided to look up Dr.Hirshkowitz for consultation. After two over night sleep studies, Dr. Hirshkowitz is nowhere to be found,no consultation. The clinic's push is to purchase a sleep machine.

What the title says!
Very helpful. Very simple. Helps patients quickly identify the problems they're having. The simple steps recommended for finding the appropriate sleep lab are helpful. For those who haven't been through it before, not all sleep labs are created equal! Neither are all CPAPs! Take a look at this book to get background information on how to make THE RIGHT decisions!
