Samenvatting
Circadian rhythms influence most of our life activities, notably getting up and going to sleep every day. The new edition of this book 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. It contains summaries, suggestions for further reading, links to pertinent websites, and exercises at the end of each chapter.
