Book Reviews of The Neurofeedback Book
Book Review: Dissapointed
Summary: 2 Stars
This book is in a textbook format and like many textbooks, it covers a wide breadth of information, but very little depth. The authors knowledge is quite impressive. Unfortunately, I was looking for more in depth information regarding both the rationale for deciding where to train and at what frequencies, along with a more in depth discussion of more complex topics such as downtraining. None of this was given more than superficial discussion and the majority of information pertains to persons with ADHD, which although the authors' area of expertise, for me did not generalize to other conditions.
Another feature I was dissapointed with was the authors tendency to frequently switch between discussions of different software programs without going into in depth discussion of any single system. It neither clarified "how to" with any specific system, nor did it provide useful information as to the range of techniques that can be used with any one system.
Overall, I was impressed with the depth of knowledge of the authors, but very little else. From a pragmatic perspective I found the book of limited value.
