This book was recommended by the therapist husband of a friend and I found
it an excellent resource for those who are having sleep problems and for those who need insight on how to create an environment conducive to sleep. Promptly sent by Amazon.
Great Read!:
This is an AMAZING book. Very interesting and informative. I had to buy this book for a sleep class, and I liked the book so much I read the book faster than we were assigned to. I got the book quickly, and it was in really good condition.

The Promise of Sleep:
This is a great book. I have purchased 4 copies for my siblings and my father. I have also recommended it to many friends. The book is particularly important to people with sleep problems, but is also invaluable general knowledge for all people. It is easy to read, very informative, and also entertaining. In fact, I am just finishing the last chapter, and I am planning to immediately start re-reading it. It is full of lots of great information.
