This is the seventh edition of this standard textbook that outlines the principles and practice of sleep medicine. It is not something easily transported; rather, it is two volumes of more than 2,000 pages that testify to the remarkable development of the field in the past three decades. It is also the first edition since the 2020 death of Dr. William Dement who was a co-editor and major leader in the field. As with previous versions, the goal has been to help the trainee and the general physician to organize such a rapidly growing fund of information into a clinically useful manner with sufficient practical information and adequate current references. Despite its size approaching the Oxford English Dictionary, the rapidity of advances in the field explains why the book has required new editions every four to six years in order to provide a condensed version of the evolving understanding of the science underlying sleep and its disorders. In addition, this volume increases the understanding of sleep and the circadian system in other medical disorders and overall health. The authors have reorganized sections on pharmacotherapeutics based on neurotransmitter receptors regulating sleep-wake function rather than broad categories like hypnotics, wake-promoting agents, etc. There are the latest developments in genetics, chronobiology, and consumer sleep monitoring. The sixth edition was published in 2017. MORE
