The book surveys the fascinating history of the EEG neurofeedback profession, a history made up of equally fascinating, 'out-of-the-box' practitioners. Robbins is a journalist and keeps the reader enthralled to the extent that you can't put the book down as you read case histories of real people whom the medical profession couldn't heal, but miraculously found real, lasting cures through neurofeedback.

Subsequent to being inspired by this book I trained how to perform neuro-biofeedback using brainmaster system and now I use the latest version of the system with neurogames. It is very effective! See the results yourself by reading the messages in Yahoo Groups (search for biofeedback and neurofeedback).

One is left wondering: "When will this treatment become mainstream and wide-spread?"

It is up to us as informed patients to do the research and lead the revolution to better mental health without drugs.
