Book excerpt: Sleep and Aging provides a unique and timely collection of review articles that cover the gamut of basic and clinical aspects of sleep and the abnormalities in sleep associated with aging and neurological disorders that occur during aging. From the evolutionary basis of sleep and its normal functions in processes such as learning and memory, to considerations of the roles of sleep abnormalities in neurological disorders such as depression, Alzheimer's and Parkinson's diseases, the chapters are written by experts in the field. Several chapters focus on signalling pathways involved in sleep regulation and abnormalities in sleep, including those activated by serotonin and BDNF. Basic and clinical research on insomnia, sleep apnea and other disorders of sleep, are covered thus providing students and scientists at all levels with a valuable source of information to advance their understanding of this important topic in aging, biology and medicine. The circuits in the brain involved in sleep regulation, their neurochemistry, how they are altered in disorders of sleep and current clinical treatments of various sleep disorders are reviewed. The important role of sleep disturbances in neurodegenerative disorders is described and research in this particular area is leading to a better understanding of the relationships between synaptic plasticity, neuronal degeneration and the clinical manifestations of disorders such as Alzheimer's disease, Parkinson's disease and depression. This book is a must for scientists, as well as non-scientists, who are interested in the neurobiology of aging, sleep and neurodegenerative disorders.

Book excerpt: "Before the Soviet invasion of 1980, Enjeela Ahmadi remembers her home--Kabul, Afghanistan--as peaceful, prosperous, and filled with people from all walks of life. But after her mother, unsettled by growing political unrest, leaves for medical treatment in India, the civil war intensifies, changing young Enjeela's life forever. Amid the rumble of invading Soviet tanks, Enjeela and her family are thrust into chaos and fear when it becomes clear that her mother will not be coming home. Thus begins an epic, reckless, and terrifying five-year journey of escape for Enjeela, her siblings, and their father to reconnect with her mother. In navigating the dangers ahead of them, and in looking back at the wilderness of her homeland, Enjeela discovers the spiritual and physical strength to find hope in the most desperate of circumstances."--

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Clinical practice related to sleep problems and sleep disorders has been expanding rapidly in the last few years, but scientific research is not keeping pace. Sleep apnea, insomnia, and restless legs syndrome are three examples of very common disorders for which we have little biological information. This new book cuts across a variety of medical disciplines such as neurology, pulmonology, pediatrics, internal medicine, psychiatry, psychology, otolaryngology, and nursing, as well as other medical practices with an interest in the management of sleep pathology. This area of research is not limited to very young and old patientsâ€"sleep disorders reach across all ages and ethnicities. Sleep Disorders and Sleep Deprivation presents a structured analysis that explores the following: Improving awareness among the general public and health care professionals. Increasing investment in interdisciplinary somnology and sleep medicine research training and mentoring activities. Validating and developing new and existing technologies for diagnosis and treatment. This book will be of interest to those looking to learn more about the enormous public health burden of sleep disorders and sleep deprivation and the strikingly limited capacity of the health care enterprise to identify and treat the majority of individuals suffering from sleep problems.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Various studies over the last decade have found a positive correlation between how someone falls asleep and their overall health. People who sleep with a peaceful mind tend to have fewer issues as compared to those who are disturbed by the issues, they faced during the day right before falling asleep. There is anything you could want out of a story here. Our first story is reminiscent of a children's bedtime story, but it has some themes in it that only an adult reader will understand. The relationship between our characters is like a relationship between a mother and a daughter, which is something that almost anyone can relate to. Our second story will be loved most by fans of fantasy. The main character hails from the Kingdom of Fenmore, the daughter of the Emperor of Drasys. She flees from an arranged marriage to a stranger, but her path takes an unexpected turn. She learns much about herself when she escapes the life that was made for her. Even if you don't usually read fantasy, we think you will enjoy this one for the characters and story alone. The third story is a lot like a farce in a sitcom. Two roommates are usually friends, but one surprises the other with a blind date, and things don't turn out the way he expected. This one is certainly the most light-hearted of the collection, so if you want to start with something that won't take too much thinking, "Birthday Mix-up" may be the best story for you to start with. Just make sure you read the other four, too. Topher's Ultimatum is the fourth story, and it is one that anyone who has worked in a modern office will be able to relate to. It will cause you to think about all the possibilities that you don't usually consider when you work in a humdrum office setting, but it will also make you think about the potential consequences of doing so. Our main character is put through a lot in this story, and he is meant for you to identify with while also being able to see how you would act differently. Finally, our fifth and final story is called Outside of Lease. The main character is a young man named Curtis, who winds up in a series of situations he never thought he would, all because he has nowhere to stay when his apartment lease ends, making him effectively homeless for three weeks in the summer. There is only so much we can cover in these short summaries, so even if one of these stories doesn't sound intriguing at first, we encourage you to read it for at least a few pages and see where it goes. We think you will find something valuable in all of them, especially in terms of meditating and falling asleep.

Book excerpt: “Easy to read and comprehensive. This book offers real practical guidance.” —Matthew Walker, PhD, bestselling author of Why We Sleep Anyone having trouble sleeping has heard all the old “sleep hygiene” rules: Don’t drink caffeine after 2:00 p.m., use the bedroom only for sleeping, put down your screens an hour before going to bed. But as the millions suffering from poor sleep can attest, just following these overly simplistic, one-size-fits-all directives doesn’t work. How to Sleep is here to rewrite the rules and help you get to sleep—and stay asleep—each and every night. Dr. Rafael Pelayo, an expert sleep clinician and professor at the world-renowned Sleep Medicine Clinic at Stanford University, offers a holistic approach to the myriad issues that might be affecting your sleep. He begins by grounding us in the biology of sleep including the extremely reassuring fact that no one actually sleeps through the night—we naturally wake up every ninety minutes. Dr. Pelayo then tackles the major sleep issues one by one, such as snoring and its causes; the difference between transient and chronic insomnia, and how to treat each; strategies to combat jet lag; how lifestyle choices affect your sleep, including exercise (even ten minutes helps), meditation (try it right before bed), and food and drink (alcohol is a double-edged sword—it may help you fall asleep faster, but it often interferes with staying asleep). There’s advice for the bedroom—on white noise machines, ambient temperature, what to look for in a pillow—and answers to our most pressing questions, from when to see a sleep medicine specialist to how aging affects our sleep. All in all, it’s a sure prescription to help you sleep better, wake up refreshed, and live a healthier life.
