Edited by Teofilo Lee-Chiong, this large handbook covers sleep medicine in more than 130 chapters. It opens with the science of sleep, including its neurobiology, rhythms and dreaming, then works through insomnia, excessive sleepiness, breathing disorders, circadian disorders, parasomnias and movement disorders, sleep across age groups, and sleep in medical, neurologic and psychiatric illness.

It is a clinical reference. For neurofeedback practitioners the closest link is the final part on assessment methods, where chapters on polysomnography and an introduction to sleep EEG by Selim Benbadis show how sleep is recorded and read.
