Circadian rhythms influence most of our life activities, notably
getting up and going to sleep every day. This new edition of
Circadian Physiology delves into the mechanisms surrounding how
these rhythms work, the physiology and biology behind them, and the
latest research on this cutting-edge field. The book also discusses
a wide variety of practical topics including the prevention of jet
lag, management of shift work, sleep disorders, depression, and the
optimal times for physical and intellectual activities. To
facilitate its use as a textbook, the book contains summaries,
suggestions for further reading, links to pertinent websites, and
exercises at the end of each chapter. It also includes software for
data analysis, tutorials, and simulation programs discussed
throughout the text. In addition, more than a thousand references
have been added, resulting in a total of more than 6000 references.
The text has been thoroughly updated as a result of major advances
in recent years. This edition adds discussion on the anatomical and
physiological characterization of photoresponsive ganglionic cells
in the mammalian retina, molecular circadian clocks in cells of
multiple organs other than the hypothalamus and the pineal gland,
and advances in the understanding of post-translational mechanisms
in the operation of the molecular clock.
