Customer Reviews

Excellent book

This book has given my children peace of mind while going to sleep. Excellent, interesting reading. Highly recommend.

Highly recommended

Every day you hear of new problems from poor sleep and since 9/11, things seem worse. I was skeptical at first, but Dr. Krakow's simple methods really seem to help me. I like that this book can be read two ways. You can read it for the detail, or just concentrate on the practical steps he outlines at the beginning of each section. This book should be helpful to anyone who knows or thinks she has a sleep problem, difficulties with sleepness, and etc. The author clearly knows what he's talking about!

A must for those who can't sleep

This very useful book describes the many things one can do to overcome insomnia, a condition that makes nighttime miserable for so many people. Written by a noted sleep researcher, it outlines the basic principles of sleep hygiene, presenting practical ways readers can make the changes in behavior and attitude that will alleviate their sleeplessness. The equivalent to having several sessions with a sleep specialist, it should be required reading for anyone who often spends a good portion of the night in fruitless pursuit of the sandman.
