The question about the function ofsleep remains one ofthe major challenges scientists are faced with. Wherein lies the fascination with sleep? I am convinced that it is the necessity for sleep. No one has failed to experience the overpowering urge to fall asleep after a disturbed night's sleep or after sleep was curtailed or deprived, especially when our daily activities impose restrictions on motor activity. The demand ofour body and brain to sleep challenges our understanding ofwhy this is the case, and which are the benefits ofa night ofprofound sleep. Also in animals prolongation of waking consistently increases their attempts to fall asleep. It has been stated that sleep is more necessary to animals than even food! The need for sleep and some insight into the consequences of the preceding daily waking activities on subsequent sleep was wonderfully formulated by Shakespeare in Othello: Not poppy nor mandragora, Nor all the drowsy syrups ofthe world, Shall ever medicine thee to that sweet sleep Which thou owed'st yesterday It is interesting that the most powerful single intervention which invariably influences sleep in a positive and predictable manner is the prolongation of waking. The activities which people or animals engage in during the wakefulness episode are secondary in the magnitude oftheir effects on sleep.

Written and edited by leading clinicians and researchers in sleep medicine, this is the first book to focus on the causes, consequences and treatment of disorders of excessive sleepiness. Extensive coverage is provided for all known causes of sleepiness, including sleep deprivation, obstructive sleep apnea syndrome, narcolepsy and other hypersomnias of central origin, shift work, and medical and psychiatric disorders. Since many causes of sleepiness are difficult to differentiate from each other, and treatment modalities can vary greatly from one disorder to another, this book helps the clinician to formulate a differential diagnosis that will ultimately lead to the correct diagnosis. Epidemiology, evaluation of the sleepy patient, diagnostic investigations including neuroimaging, subjective and objective testing, cognitive effects of sleepiness, motor vehicle driving issues, medico-legal aspects of sleepiness, and therapy are also discussed in detail. This is an essential resource for neurologists, psychiatrists and sleep specialists.

Six millions de Français se plaignent d’insomnie et 3 millions de somnolence anormale. Troubles de vigilance et de concentration, manque de motivation, nervosité, mauvaise humeur, diminution des performances, perturbations sociales et familiales : autant d’effets négatifs sur notre journée que nous pouvons combattre. Car un bon sommeil est nécessaire à l’équilibre de notre corps, à notre mémoire, à nos performances physiques et intellectuelles. • Première étape : connaître et comprendre son sommeil. Êtes-vous long ou court-dormeur ? Quelle est votre durée de sommeil optimale ? Pourquoi dort-on à certaines heures et pas à d’autres ? Que se passe-t-il dans notre corps endormi ? Quelle est la place du rêve ? • Deuxième étape : repérer le trouble. Que faire quand on ne parvient pas à s’endormir, quand on se réveille la nuit ou quand on tombe de sommeil de façon inappropriée ? Existe-t-il de bons médicaments ? Comment réapprendre à dormir ? La sieste est-elle bénéfique ? Les médicaments du sommeil sont-ils nécessaires ou néfastes ?Michel Billiard propose dans ce guide recommandations et traitements pour tous les troubles du sommeil. Apprenons donc à bien dormir pour passer de bonnes journées ! Michel Billiard a créé en France un des premiers centres spécialisés dans le sommeil et l’éveil. Il est professeur honoraire de neurologie à la faculté de médecine de Montpellier, après avoir travaillé à l’Université Stanford (Californie). Il a été président de la Société européenne de recherche sur le sommeil.
