Praxisbuch Biofeedback und Neurofeedback
by Karl-Michael Haus, Carla Held, Axel Kowalski, Andreas Krombholz, Manfred Nowak, Edith Schneider, Gert Strauß, Meike Wiedemann

  • Paperback: 300 pages
  • Publisher: Springer; 2013 edition (13 December 2012)
  • Language: German

In this practical handbook the authors present all the important bio- and neurofeedback methods, from how they work to how they are carried out. The many applications in prevention and therapy are covered comprehensively, with case studies and numerous illustrations. The book gives a good overall picture of what biofeedback & neurofeedback can do and is reasonably priced on top of that. If you are interested in biofeedback only and not in neurofeedback, the next book is the better choice.

Biofeedback
by Winfried Rief, Niels Birbaumer

  • Hardcover: 416 pages
  • Publisher: Schattauer; 3rd, revised and expanded edition 2011 (15 December 2010)
  • Language: German

This book is the reference work on biofeedback and describes almost everything the method has to offer. Neurofeedback makes up only a small part of it. It gives a genuinely good overview of all the „feedback“ methods along with practical examples, and it is still reasonably up to date.

Biofeedback. Ein Handbuch für die therapeutische Praxis
by Timon Bruns, Nina Praun

  • Paperback: 189 pages
  • Publisher: Vandenhoeck & Ruprecht (1 April 2002)
  • Language: German

Anyone new to biofeedback and neurofeedback should have a look at this remarkable paperback. Every biofeedback method is explained concisely, with very clear examples that anyone can follow. Neurofeedback is touched on briefly using ADHD as an example. The book is somewhat dated by now, as much of what we know today was not yet established in 2002. Even so it is a wonderful book for newcomers to the field and worth every cent of its EUR 30. Unfortunately it has been out of print for some time. Second-hand copies occasionally turn up on Amazon – click the book to go there.

Biofeedback: Die alternative Methode zur Behandlung von Schmerzen und psychosomatischen Beschwerden
by Jörg Heuser, Eva Weißacher

  • Hardcover: 192 pages
  • Publisher: Irisiana; 1st edition (5 February 2008)
  • Language: German

The authors offer a compact, well-founded and very practice-oriented introduction to the basics of biofeedback, with a focus on the treatment of pain. The book answers most of the questions therapists ask when they want to get to know biofeedback and are considering using it in their own practice. It is equally informative for patients who would like to learn more about biofeedback. All chapters are easy to follow, engagingly written and well researched.

  • Paperback: 930 pages
  • Publisher: Guilford Pubn; 3rd edition (11 August 2005)
  • Language: English

For science and research, this English-language compendium is worth pointing out. While no longer entirely current, it offers a well-researched foundation on the possibilities of biofeedback, backed by extensive references.
