Books About Neurofeedback

INTRODUCTION

Getting Rid of Ritalin, by Robert Hill, Ph.D. and Ed Castro, MD. 
Bob Hill, a psychologist, used neurofeedback in his clinical practice for 15 years. It's really not about Ritalin or ADD.  He makes things simple and does a very good job of explaining neurofeedback and how it's used.  (The second half is on other non-medication approaches to ADD that is well done.) At many neurofeedback courses, this is the book that clinicians said was most helpful at giving them some understanding of neurofeedback. 

Symphony in the Brain, by Jim Robbins
Jim is a science writer (including the NY Times). He has done a very good job of capturing a picture of the field and explaining a lot about the brain, and giving you a "sense" of neurofeedback. 

The 20 Hour Solution, by Mark Steinberg, Ph.D. & Siegfried Othmer, Ph.D.
Another good book that explains how neurofeedback works and the kind of successes it can have.

MORE COMPLEX
Getting started with Neurofeedback, John Demos, LCMHC (Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselor).
This book provides some good information, but It doesn't teach you how to do neurofeedback. It's also more than you can absorb. That doesn't mean it's not useful - it's got some good technical explanations about EEG, electrodes, etc. 

The Neurofeedback Book, Michael Thompson, MD and Lynda Thompson, Ph.D. 
An in-depth text book, good to read as preparation for the Biofeedback Certification Exam, good at explaining neurophysiology, EEG, and much more.  Caution:  The book barely touches on the most critical issue in learning neurofeedback clinically - adjusting protocols (frequencies and sites) and training strategies. 

APPLYING NEUROFEEDBACK
Any of the first 6-7 books are good places to start. The Schore (a tremendous work on brain development) and Llinas book (and to a some degree, Schwartz) are all very good, but "heavier".  These are foundational books for neurofeedback providers.  You don't have to read them before you get trained in neurofeedback.  But many neurofeedback providers end up reading most of these books.
