Average Rating: 
Rating:  - Not basic!
Having no experience with neuroscience, I began this book as a preparation for training in Neurofeedback. I took the title at it's word, "Getting Started". While I learned a lot reading the book, it assumes a certain level of knowledge of brain science and is quite badly organized for a beginner. I found myself slogging through very difficult, unexplained material which was then somewhat clarified in later chapters. I found myself wondering why the author didn't organize the material with the ... Read More
Rating:  - Good get-started manual
This is the only book that I have seen that doesn't just give a theoretical overview of the field of neurofeedback but actually gives a workable, usable protocol which the reader can follow to get started with their equipment. I have found out the hard way that although one's intentions to work w/NF can be good the task of actually using it can be daunting. Unless you enjoy writing computer code and designing programs you will have a tough time getting started in this field. This manual gives you ... Read More
Rating:  - More than Getting Started
I've taken many EEG workshops in the last few years, but this book tops many of them. There is a lot more here than just Getting Started in Neurofeedback.

I found Demo's approach not only comprehensive, but he also illustrates his major points with specific case examples. The only thing I missed was a table of normative baselines of peak to peak amplitudes. But apart from that, this ... Read More
Rating: - Getting Started With Neurofeedback
I'm glad someone recommended this book to me before I took my first week-long training seminar in neurofeedback. It gave me a broad overview of the field and familiarized me with terminology, concepts and graphs so that I was "illuminated" rather than overwhelmed by my first seminar.
Rating:  - Limited usefulness
I had bought this book with high hopes based on the reviews and description. Make no mistake, this is a user's manual for several types of specific equipment (EEG-type) with very little background on how to interpret the readings or, more generally, on the various aspects of the neurofeedback field, or other methods of neurofeedback. This is a book by a pratitioner for a starting practitioner (dealing with how to set-up electrodes, how to read charts, a summary of a couple dated EEG systems, and how ... Read More
