A short but engaging analysis of why we sleep and how to improve
our sleep hygiene. In Sleep, psychologist Christine Parsons lays
out the benefits of sleeping for our bodies, minds, and societies.
The negative effects of chronic sleep deprivation include
correlations with Alzheimer's disease, relationship problems, and
car crashes. To combat sleep deprivation, Parsons studies the
effects of melatonin and caffeine and the importance of light and
the circadian rhythm on the quality of our sleep. She provides
helpful tricks, training, and therapy to overcome the most common
obstacles to better sleep hygiene. Exploring different sleep styles
and choices, Parsons assesses which ones work and which ones
don't—helping lead us to a better night's rest. In Reflections, a
series copublished with Denmark's Aarhus University Press, scholars
deliver 60-page reflections on key concepts. These books present
unique insights on a wide range of topics that entertain and
enlighten readers with exciting discoveries and new perspectives.
