Steven W. Lockley and Russell G. Foster – Sleep – A Very Short Introduction
What is sleep? Why do we need it? How much is enough?
In this Very Short Introduction, Steven W. Lockley and Russell G. Foster explore the major sleep disorders and describe the dramatic breakthroughs in
our knowledge of how sleep occurs, and how it affects our health if we do not have enough.
Concluding by considering the impact of modern society on sleep, they look at the relationship between sleep and work hours, and the effect that a
24/7 culture is having on our lives and sleep patterns.
