Summary |
"The physiology and psychology of sleep and waking are addressed in twelve chapters covering the following broad categories: consciousness; electroencephalography; cerebral vigilance; attention and imagery; the border between sleep and waking; dreaming; sleep as provoked response; sleep deprivation; and clinical sleep conditions"--Chapter. (PsycINFO Database Record (c) 2007 APA, all rights reserved) |

"The period of the last three decades has been one in which there have been outstanding advances in both knowledge and theory about the changes in brain function forming the physiological basis of sleep. These advances have largely been made through the development of electrophysiological techniques and have attracted widespread interest. It is possible that these rapid advances have tended to distract attention from other, age-old problems posed by sleep, some of which we shall re-consider in this book, and about which our understanding has also become a little clearer." |
