"I know but I don't know" according to Bangkokbanks. I'm enlightened and now fully briefed on sleep apnea.

Great little book, simplifies things for the sufferer/layman. Excellent reference for those wanting to understand this complex disease and get some answers.. Gerald V. said A Helpful Introduction to Understanding Sleep Apnea. This is a helpful book when one is faced with sleep apnea as a new personal event. It begins to clarify some things that are not readily known or understood. The questions at the end of the book seemed to cloud the understandings presented earlier, but this did not make the book any less valuable as a source of information.
