"This book is a beautifully illustrated atlas. As the evaluation of sleep requires a significant amount of imaging and data collection due to the variety of bodily functions affected, this book places great emphasis on figures and tables with inclusion of online materials featuring patient interviews and models of laboratory data collected to evaluate sleep patients." ©Doody’s Review Service, 2024, David James Dries, MSE, MD (Regions Hospital), Doody’s Score: 99 - 5 Stars!
