 Rating:  - A quick readI met the author and wanted a refresher on what I heard him say. His book is right to the point with lots of references if you want to further research in detail. He has written this book in easy layman's terms with practical applications backed by the references in the back of the book. Rating:  - blue horseI did find the book very helpful in understanding the various aspects of melatonin. Its action in he body and how it can be applied for better sleep. Rating: - Excellent scientific explanationsNot an "easy" read, but lots of substance and scientific support for all the information. Dr. Reiter is a lead researcher at University of Texas San Antonio and has impeccable credentials for writing on this subject. Valuable information on a valuable topic. Even if you don't read every page, you'll probably find parts related to whatever aspect is of particular interest to you well worth reading. Excellent reference material.
