Given that Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) is considered one of the few evidence-based tinnitus treatments and given the fact that relatively few healthcare professionals are properly prepared to deliver such treatment, it is only logical that self-help approaches have been advocated. In creating a self-help guide, Dr Hashir Aazh and Professor Brian C.J. Moore combine cutting-edge knowledge of auditory science and theoretical frameworks in modern psychology with the insight they have acquired from clinical encounters about the complexities of the human experience of tinnitus and how to help people to deal with it. But that’s not all! Aazh and Moore’s unique style of writing teaches us complex concepts in an entertaining manner. The book introduces a cast of characters from Beauty and the Beast to Moby Dick, from Dante to Muhammad Ali, and from Sigmund Freud to Rumi, Buddha and Epictetus. Packed with metaphors and practical tips, the authors draw a realistic picture of what the recovery from tinnitus-related distress looks like, and then dive into the deep and explore the variety of experiences of tinnitus and their complexities.
