Product Review
Ralph Schoenstein has made it his personal quest not only to cure his own snoring, but to investigate everything about the dreaded phenomenon. The author combines humor (ongoing dialogues with his long-suffering wife keep us abreast of his progress) with the most recent reports from the evolving science of otolaryngology; seven eminent physicians have lent their time and knowledge to his study.
You'll discover the most common causes of snoring: a long uvula and a small upper airway; you'll learn entertaining facts: "Normal speech is about forty decibels of loudness and a baby crying about sixty. Loud snorers, however, can hit eighty decibels, which is about the same volume as a jack-hammer or the barking of a dog"; and you'll discover the range of the problem, from the light to the life-threatening, plus myriad gimmicks, clinics, and pills. And Schoenstein gives a thorough rundown on cures, from the low-impact to the drastic (i.e., laser surgery). Stop the Snoring is up-to-date, fun to read, and reliable--only those treatments that have been thoroughly tested are recommended. A list of every sleep disorder center in America is also included for those serious about stopping the snoring once and for all.
Product Description
In this amusing, delightful guide, readers will discover all the known remedies for snoring, and find out which ones work all the time, which work sometimes, and which never work at all. From tennis balls on the back to laser surgery on the throat, Schoenstein examines every treatment--and reveals the benefits and drawbacks of each. A fascinating blend of fact and entertaining wit, this guide was edited by one of America's leading otolaryngologists, Yosef P. Krespi, M.D., Director of Otolaryngology, St. Lukes-Roosevelt Hospital Center.
