    About this ebook

    Lois Maharg took her doctor’s advice, read books on insomnia, followed recommendations—and still got no respite from her wakeful nights and washed-out days. So she set out to explore insomnia, visiting sleep clinics, researchers, therapists, conferences, and fellow insomniacs, in the hope that deeper understanding would lead to better sleep. The Savvy Insomniac documents her journey and offers the sleepless an illuminating and practical guide to getting rest.
