Synopsis

Living in our fast-paced modern society, we are expected to juggle demanding careers and long commutes with personal and family life-and do it all with less and less sleep. The result is a virtual epidemic of insomnia, which takes its toll in automobile accidents, illness, stress, obesity, lost productivity at work and general malaise. In A GOOD NIGHT'S SLEEP: SIMPLE, EFFECTIVE WAYS TO OVERCOME INSOMNIA, noted epidemiologist Barbara Wexler discusses the causes of insomnia and other barriers to sleep. In an engaging way, Wexler reviews the pros and cons of each therapy used to overcome insomnia-from medical treatments including prescription drugs, surgery, dental appliances and cognitive/behavioral therapy to alternative treatments including herbs and other dietary supplements, meditation, yoga and acupuncture. Drawing on the full range of available treatments, Wexler helps readers choose the right ones to implement a comprehensive insomnia treatment plan that will help you, finally, to get a good night's sleep.
