Restoring the Brain by Hanno W Kirk
This thoroughly updated second edition of Restoring the Brain is the definitive book on the theory and the practice of Infra-Low Frequency brain training. It provides a comprehensive look at the process of neurofeedback within the emerging field of neuromodulation and essential knowledge of functional neuroanatomy and neural dynamics to successfully restore brain function. Integrating the latest research, this thoroughly revised edition focuses on current innovations in mechanisms-based training that are scalable and can be deployed at any stage of human development. Included in this edition are new chapters on clinical data and case studies for new applications; using neurofeedback for early childhood developmental disorders; integrating neurofeedback with psychotherapy; the impact of low-frequency neurofeedback on depression; the issue of trauma from war or abuse; and physical damage to the brain. Practitioners and researchers in psychiatry, medicine, and behavioral health will gain a wealth of knowledge and tools for effectively using neurofeedback to recover and enhance the functional competence of the brain.This book is noteworthy for providing the scientific justification for extending neurofeedback into the infra-low frequency domainIt is backed by voluminous clinical data along with new research findings. Restoring the Brain is likely to become the definitive resource for infra-low frequency neurofeedback.

This second edition of Restoring the Brain appears a mere four years after publication of the first edition. Given the growing interest in neurofeedback, it comes not a moment too soon. With the new findings and insights presented in these pages, the book is a must for practitioners who wish to be up-to-date with developments in the field.

In Restoring the Brain, seasoned scientist-practitioners address clinical frontiers in neuroscience with workable, integrative treatment options now available through neurofeedback for a variety of mental syndromes. Infra-low frequency neurofeedback may well bridge the narrative gap in the theory as well as the performance gap in the practice of mental health.
Charles Parker, DO, Editor CoreBrain Journal; Director, CoreBrain Academy
The second Edition of Restoring the Brain is an important addition to knowledge in the field of Neuromodulation. It is filled with many scientific insights, new data, and useful clinical information. I highly recommend it.
