* This ground-breaking book binds together a contemporary
understanding of sleep and brain injury. * It pairs empirical
understanding through clinical practice with extensive up-to-date
research. * The author discusses the neuroanatomy and architecture
of sleep, including the need for sleep, definitions of good sleep
and what can go wrong with sleep. * The focus then moves to the
neuroanatomical damage and dysfunction from brain injury, and the
resultant functional effects. * The author then adroitly fuses the
two streams of coverage together, focusing on the neurobiological,
neurochemical, and functional aspects of both sleep and brain
injury to offer new insights as to how they interrelate. * The book
then looks towards the applied aspects of treatment and
rehabilitation, bringing further thoughts of how, because of this
new understanding, we can potentially offer novel treatments for
brain injury recovery and sleep problems. * In this final practical
section four sleep foundations are given, necessary to optimize the
three most common sleep problems and their treatments after brain
injury. * This new approach highlights how sleep can affect the
specific functional effects of brain injury and how brain injury
can exacerbate some of the specific functional effects of sleep
problems, thus having the potential to transform the field of
neurorehabilitation. * It is essential reading for professionals
working with brain injury and postgraduate students in clinical
neuropsychology.
