Why don't you give exact delivery time?
Delivery time is estimated on our previous experiences. We give estimations only, because we order from outside Hungary, and the delivery time mainly depends on how quickly the publisher supplies the book. Faster or slower deliveries both happen, but we do our best to supply as quickly as possible.

Short description:
Part of the Oxford Psychiatry Library series, this concise pocketbook will provide clinicians with an overview of the current understanding of sleep physiology, the pathophysiology of sleep disturbance, and the diagnosis and treatment of sleep disorders.
MoreLong description:
Sleep dysfunction is one of the primary symptoms reported by patients with psychiatric disorders, and specifically those suffering from anxiety and depressive disorders. Conversely, primary insomnia and other sleep disorders produce symptoms of mood disturbance that are quite similar to those reported by patients with psychiatric disorders. Because of this overlap in the symptoms and treatments for insomnias and psychiatric disorders, it is important for clinicians to be able to
accurately identify the root cause of sleep dysfunction in individual patients in order to optimize treatment.

Excellent little volume...This truly pocket-sized book is an excellent starting place. It is well and clearly written with helpful instructions and relevant references for further reading Although part of the Oxford Psychiatry Library and thus aimed primarily at those working in mental health fields, it covers all aspects of sleep medicine including OSA and those with physical manifestations. It would be of value to a practitioner in any field who wished a short introduction to the
subject.
