The 8 chapters of the ERS Handbook of Respiratory Sleep Medicine cover all aspects of adult and paediatric sleep medicine, from physiology and anatomy to diagnosis and treatment. Editors Wilfried de Backer and Anita Simonds have brought together leading pulmonologists to produce a thorough yet easy-to-read reference to this important area of respiratory medicine. The Handbook is a valuable reference and an essential training resource for any practitioner of sleep medicine, whether they come from a respiratory, neurology, cardiology, dental or ENT background.
