In this issue, we have compiled information that is crucial to the basic understanding of the socioeconomic and pathophysiologic effects, as well as many surgical and non-surgical methods of diagnosis and treatment of snoring and obstructive sleep apnea. Our hope is that readers choose each procedure carefully and avoid those that are not compatible with their patients' airway anatomy. We explore each section in detail and as thoroughly as possible. We have developed a unique treatment planning chart for snoring and obstructive sleep apnea that guides the reader in a systematic way in choosing different options. As for the diagnosis and treatment planning of snoring and sleep apnea, nasopharyngoscopy is explained in a clear and detailed manner. New techniques of home studies researched at the Capital Health System in Trenton, New Jersey, are explained as well. This research is unquestionably going to change the future of sleep medicine.
