From Booklist, 1998
As a professor of neurosciences and director of the V.A.'s East Orange, N.J., Gulf
War Research Center and the New Jersey Chronic Fatigue Syndrome Center, Natelson has
clinical and research experience with a broad range of patients suffering from fatigue. He
writes for the more than 10 percent of Americans who frequently suffer from it. Although
he devotes much space to chronic fatigue syndrome and fibromyalgia, the two major causes
of fatigue, he also explores other possible causes, methods of avoiding all causes, and
many treatments. He discusses stress and depression and emphasizes, above all, the need
for a knowledgeable and sympathetic physician. Natelson's practical book deserves special
credit for the observation that "often the doctor has not realized that the job is
not to cure but to help."

Much talked about but little understood,
Chronic Fatigue Syndrome (CFS) lacks a well-defined cause or treatment. Based on
up-to-the-minute research findings, Friedberg -- who suffers himself from CFS -- has
devised a nine-point plan for taking control of CFS that incorporates a potent link
between stress and CFS symptoms.
Few titles provide concrete advice on this syndrome from such a viewpoint: the
author is a sufferer plus a psychologist and researcher, and his fifteen years of
experience with the syndrome lends to a fine reflection on the latest research and its
applications for self-help physical and emotional changes. Midwest Book Review
