An updated edition of Moorcroft's 2003 volume, this new work
reflects recent scientific advances in the area of sleep and
disorders. As in the previous book, Understanding Sleep and
Dreaming, this new edition serves as a compact overview for now
sleep experts, covering physiological sleep mechanisms, brain
function, psychological ramifications of sleep, dimensions of
dreaming, and clinical disorders associated with sleep. It is
accessibly written with specially boxed material that enhances the
text. It also offers a good foundation for those who will continue
sleep studies, while at the same time offering enough information
for those who will apply this knowledge in other ways such as
clinicians private practices or researchers. It is an excellent
text for courses on sleep at the undergraduate and graduate levels.
The section on sleep labs will show how computers have replaced
former models of data collection and storage; includes the new area
of the genetics of sleep; add a new box on teen sleep; insert a new
box on the emerging information about how technology use affects
sleep; emphasize the controversy over rampart, wide-spread sleep
deprivation; and include a new box covering the connection between
sleep loss and weight gain. Additional inclusions might incorporate
current "hot topics," such as the effect of shift work on sleep,
sleep problems in adolescents, and nightmare treatment for people
suffering from PTSD.
