“This book describes in great detail and in a step‐wise fashion how to set up a network for an algorithm based decision-making system for treating tinnitus and assessing the effectiveness of treatment interventions for tinnitus. … This book is most suitable for medical practitioners who have been seeing tinnitus patients in their practice … . This book is geared towards clinicians who are also research-based and interested in taking an analytic and data-driven approach to the treatment of tinnitus.” (JoAnn Shih, Doody's Book Reviews, May, 2017)
