His book, coauthored with Robert Aquinas McNally, "If You Think You Have Panic Disorder" took Panic Disorder: A Critical Analysis (1994), McNally's original "comprehensive and lucid" and "well written" text, and adapted it for a wider audience.

Granet's medical degree is from the University of Medicine and Dentistry of New Jersey.
