Synopsis
Stop guessing. Stop hoping. Start engineering better sleep.
If you are living in the "3:00 AM fog," you don’t need more parenting anecdotes or "gentle" suggestions that don’t work. You need a system. You need a clinical framework that treats sleep not as a stroke of luck, but as a learned skill.
In The Behavior of Sleep, Mark Rutowski, a Board Certified Behavior Analyst (BCBA) with nearly a decade of experience, strips away the myths of the "bad sleeper" and replaces them with the hard science of Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA). This isn't just another sleep training book—it is a technical manual for the most important "software" in your home: your child's sleep repertoire. Using data-driven strategies and clinical precision, Rutowski teaches you how to become a behavioral detective, identifying the function of your child's wake-ups and engineering an environment where sleep becomes inevitable.
Inside this guide, you will discover:
The Science of the "Sleep Engine": Understand how Adenosine and Melatonin work and how to stop accidentally sabotaging your child’s biological drive to sleep.
The Behavioral Audit: Learn how to use ABC data (Antecedent-Behavior-Consequence) to pinpoint exactly why your child is waking up.
The "Sleep Software" Protocols: Step-by-step instructions for Extinction, Graduated Extinction, and Stimulus Fading—tailored to your family’s "unique architecture."
The Toddler Transition: Master the "Silent Return" and "Curtain Call" techniques to end bedtime battles for good.
Specialized Support: Clinical insights into navigating sleep with neurodivergent children (ASD/ADHD) and identifying medical barriers that behavior alone can't fix.
The 2:00 AM Crisis Flowchart: A clear, objective decision tree for those high-stress moments when you’re too tired to think.
Whether you are a parent at your breaking point or a practitioner looking to sharpen your clinical repertoire, The Behavior of Sleep provides the technological clarity needed to reclaim your nights.
It’s time to move from a "Battle of Wills" to a "Cooperative System." Reclaim your sleep. Reclaim your sanity. Buy your copy today.
