内容説明

One of the first such volumes in this field, Sleep Disorders: Diagnosis and Therapeutics explores sleep pharmacology and therapeutics. Leading researchers in the area of experimental and clinical and psychopharmacology critically assess the progress in their specialist fields. The book is suitable as an introduction for clinicians and researchers who are new to sleep pharmacology and outlines the wider range of therapeutic options currently available to them. For seasoned clinicians, the book will assist in selecting the most appropriate methodologies and treatment options designed to circumvent the problems in combating sleep disorders.
