Jet lag, insomnia, the night shift, sleeping pills - outside events often disrupt sleeping patterns and the rhythm of our daily lives. Science has only recently begun intensive study of how our bodies are timed by internal clocks and how we accomodate when another schedule is imposed on our personal periodicity.
Martin Moore-Ede, Frank Sulzman, and Charles Fuller here present - for the first time - a synthesis of what is known about the endogenous system in mammals that schedules the organism's appropriate behavioral and physiological responses.
The Clocks That Time Us is written in a clear, jargon-free style to appeal not only to physicians, psychologists, public and occupational helth specialists, and biological scientists, but also to the student and the curious layman.
