Detailed Description
Healthy sleep is just as important as a healthy diet
In a society where exercise and nutrition play a major role, the topic of sleep must not be neglected. It is at least as important and also strongly correlates with our health. Chronobiologist Christian Cajochen from the University of Basel has found that if people "sleep only six hours for ten nights in a row, they are in a state, in terms of performance, reaction speed, memory, and judgment, as if they had one per mille of alcohol in their blood.1 This is just one of many facts that clearly demonstrate how important restful and, above all, sufficient sleep is. This awareness of the importance of sleep in society seems to be gradually reawakening. In his book, Prof. Dr. Fietze encourages exactly this in a vivid way.
Prof. Dr. Fietze sheds light
With his book "The Overtired Society: How Sleep Deprivation Makes Us All Sick," Prof. Dr. Fietze makes an important contribution to raising awareness of the individual and societal consequences of sleep deprivation and disturbed sleep. It is important to him that we finally understand that sleep should play a much greater role in our lives than it currently does. Prof. Dr. Fietze takes you on an exciting journey through the most important topics related to sleep and sleep disorders. He also illuminates the complex physiological processes in our brain and explains what role hormones play in our sleep-wake rhythm and why sleep is essential for the recovery of our organism and for our immune system. In "The Overtired Society," Prof. Dr. Fietze also sheds light on the different types of sleep disorders and their causes and explains current sleep medicine trends, therapies, and findings.
