"Truly a comprehensive collection of invaluable information and graphical illustrations about everything that is needed to perform the polysomnographic assessment. From basic concepts about normal sleep and sleep disorders, technical information about calibration, artifacts, and various montages, to practical recommendations for managing a sleep laboratory, this atlas represents a superb reference guide. The atlas is filled with useful illustrations of actual records depicting standards for monitoring, artifacts recognition, and key findings associated with different sleep pathologies. A compendium of review questions at the end of each chapter is extremely handy for testing new learning. Although intended primarily for sleep technologists, this atlas will serve as a useful reference for any sleep clinician, researcher, or trainee wanting to learn more about the technical and clinical aspects of evaluating sleep and sleep disorders.The authors of this atlas, Drs. Ravi Gupta, S. R. Pandi-Perumal, and Ahmed BaHamman, are internationally known leading experts in sleep medicine and sleep research. They are to be commended for compiling this essential tool for a better understanding normal sleep and diagnosing many sleep disorders. This atlas is likely to remain a key reference in the field for years to come."

"This text, written by a two sleep physicians and a sleep researcher, covers the basics, and logistics, of performing sleep studies. The content is aimed primarily at sleep technologists, and is written from an Indian perspective. . . . Aimed at individuals starting out in sleep medicine, this text provides concise, definitive information, as to how to perform most of the basic components of data acquisition and sleep scoring, and could act as reference material during the initial learning period of a sleep professional, who is performing and analyzing sleep studies."

-From the Foreword by Charles M. Morin, PhD, FRSC, DABSM, President, World Sleep Society

"Easy to understand, comprehensive and one can begin a career in sleep medicine by simply reading it. . . . Sleep disorders are now recognized as a major public health issue. Investigating sleep is the most challenging medical investigation as it requires background knowledge of physiology, sleep medicine, and expertise in sleep technology. The Clinical Atlas on Polysomnography has everything you want to learn or teach on sleep technology. The physiological principles of respiration, gas exchange, and the genesis of electrical potentials with color illustrations make it easy to understand for technicians. . . . Recent developments in sleep data acquisition systems and analysis software, including automated computing techniques, make the life of sleep technicians ever-challenging. This book describes all the major PSG machines available in the market with their software features."

- From the Foreword by Hrudananda Mallick, MD, PhD, FAMS, Professor, Physiology, Dr. Baldev Singh Sleep Laboratory, All India Institute of Medical Sciences, New Delhi, India; President, Indian Society for Sleep Research; President, Asian Sleep Research Society

"The Clinical Atlas of Polysomnography, written by 3 of the most renowned sleep researchers worldwide, is one of most comprehensive books written in this context. The book is easy to understand and generously illustrated. In addition to the substantial coverage of polysomnography, this book also presents information on sleep in general and different sleep disorders and how to make diagnoses. This book is not only of great value for sleep technologists but is also most valuable for physicians interested in sleep disorders, which every physician should be aware of, as sleep is one of the crucial fundaments we have to consider to stay alive, and sleep disorders are one of most common issues we faces in health care."
