Using case studies and a minimum of technical language, the field’s pioneers and most experienced practitioners discuss emerging topics, general and specific treatment procedures, training approaches, and theories on the efficacy of neurofeedback.Handbook of Neurofeedback includes historical notes and speculation of the future of neurofeedback from a neurotherapist who’s also an inventor/producer of neurofeedback equipment.
