This book reviews current knowledge on the importance of sleep for
brain function, from molecular mechanisms to behavioral output,
with special emphasis on the question of how sleep and sleep loss
ultimately affect cognition and mood. It provides an extensive
overview of the latest insights in the role of sleep in regulating
gene expression, synaptic plasticity and neurogenesis and how that
in turn is linked to learning and memory processes. In addition,
readers will learn about the potential clinical implications of
insufficient sleep and discover how chronically restricted or
disrupted sleep may contribute to age-related cognitive decline and
the development of psychiatric disorders such as schizophrenia and
depression. The book consists of 19 chapters, written by experts in
basic sleep research and sleep medicine, which together cover a
wide range of topics on the importance of sleep and consequences of
sleep disruption. This book will be of interest to students,
researchers and clinicians with a general interest in brain
function or a specific interest in sleep.
