Book excerpt: Author Rob Simon has been on a quest: How do I stop snoring and save my marriage? Thanks to the author's diligence, humor, and-in no small part-the willingness of his mate to hold onto hope, millions of snorers and snorees may find their own solution to snoring, one of the most widely deliberated about and challenging conditions around the world. Snore No More! is no first-person account. Rather it's a well-researched book written by a man-men are twice as likely to snore as women-who knows the trials and tribulations of snoring and leaves no topic unturned in his hunt for answers. The result is an entertaining, humorous, and very informative book that covers everything from how to say snore in many of the world's languages to the effects of diet on snoring. Other topics include snoring surgeries (several of which the author has undergone), effects of sleep loss on snorees, and even dealing with pet snoring. Snore No More! is destined to become a must-have book for anyone who snores or lives with a snorer. The book's insights, suggestions, and documentation alone make it a valuable reference-one that just might keep snorers up all night reading.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: NAMED A BEST BOOK OF THE YEAR 2023 BY THE NEW YORKER NEW YORK TIMES EDITOR'S CHOICE SELECTION "A propulsive, utterly engrossing history... None of it is simple and all of it is captivating."—The New York Times "Mapping the Darkness offers two narratives at once: a sweeping journey of discovery about dreams, sleep and the terra incognita of unconsciousness; and a wake-up call about the dangers of chronic exhaustion. It’s time, Mr. Miller tells us, to take our sleep back."—The Wall Street Journal From award-winning journalist Kenneth Miller comes the definitive story of the scientists who set out to answer two questions: “Why do we sleep?” and "How can we sleep better?” A century ago, sleep was considered a state of nothingness—even a primitive habit that we could learn to overcome. Then, an immigrant scientist and his assistant spent a month in the depths of a Kentucky cave, making nationwide headlines and thrusting sleep science to the forefront of our consciousness. In the 1920s, Nathaniel Kleitman founded the world’s first dedicated sleep lab at the University of Chicago, where he subjected research participants (including himself) to a dizzying array of tests and tortures. But the tipping point came in 1938, when his cave experiment awakened the general public to the unknown—and vital—world of sleep. Kleitman went on to mentor the talented but troubled Eugene Aserinsky, whose discovery of REM sleep revealed the astonishing activity of the dreaming brain, and William Dement, a jazz-bass playing revolutionary who became known as the father of sleep medicine. Dement, in turn, mentored the brilliant maverick Mary Carskadon, who uncovered an epidemic of sleep deprivation among teenagers, and launched a global movement to fight it. Award-winning journalist Kenneth Miller weaves together science and history to tell the story of four outsider scientists who took sleep science from fringe discipline to mainstream obsession through spectacular experiments, technological innovation, and single-minded commitment. Readers will walk away with a comprehensive understanding of sleep and why it affects so much of our lives.

The book provides answers to key questions, written in easy-to-understand terms, as well as the pros and cons of specific treatments. This extensively revised and updated third edition includes information on new surgical techniques, the treatment of children with snoring and sleep apnea problems, and new oral appliances for relief of snoring and sleep apnea.

Download or read book Sleepyhead written by Henry Nicholls and published by Profile Books. This book was released on 2018-03-01 with total page 329 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: When Henry Nicholls was twenty-one, he was diagnosed with narcolepsy: a medical disorder causing him to fall asleep with no warning. For the healthy but overworked majority, this might sound like an enviable condition, but for Henry, the inability to stay awake is profoundly disabling, especially as it is accompanied by mysterious collapses called cataplexy, poor night-time sleep, hallucinations and sleep paralysis. A writer and biologist, Nicholls explores the science of disordered sleep, discovering that around half of us will experience some kind of sleep dysfunction in our lives. From a CBT course to tackle insomnia to a colony of narcoleptic Dobermans, his journey takes him through the half-lit world of sleep to genuine revelations about his own life and health. Told with humour and intelligence, Sleepyhead uses personal reflections, interviews with those with sleep disorders and the people who study them, anecdotes from medical history and insights from art and literature to change the way we understand our sleeping hours.

This book was released on 2012-08-13 with total page 172 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An engrossing examination of the science behind the little-known world of sleep. Like many of us, journalist David K. Randall never gave sleep much thought. That is, until he began sleepwalking. One midnight crash into a hallway wall sent him on an investigation into the strange science of sleep. In Dreamland, Randall explores the research that is investigating those dark hours that make up nearly a third of our lives. Taking readers from military battlefields to children’s bedrooms, Dreamland shows that sleep isn't as simple as it seems. Why did the results of one sleep study change the bookmakers’ odds for certain Monday Night Football games? Do women sleep differently than men? And if you happen to kill someone while you are sleepwalking, does that count as murder? This book is a tour of the often odd, sometimes disturbing, and always fascinating things that go on in the peculiar world of sleep. You’ll never look at your pillow the same way again.

Download or read book Relief from Snoring and Sleep Apnea written by Tess Graham and published by Createspace Independent Publishing Platform. This book was released on 2014-08-28 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A simple breakthrough approach to getting silent restful sleep and increasing your health and energy. With a foreword by eminent cardiologist and bestselling author, Dr Ross Walker.The secret to getting relief from snoring and sleep apnea, more oxygen to every cell in your body and increasing your energy, lies in getting your breathing right. Breathing is the most basic and most overlooked function of your body. People who snore and have sleep apnea do not breathe correctly. No exceptions. Research shows they 'over-breathe' - breathe 2-3 times more air per minute than is normal, both when AWAKE and ASLEEP. Rapid inhalation during sleep, when the throat muscles are relaxed, causes vibration and turbulence in the throat (snoring), and may create a suction effect on the throat sufficient to obstruct breathing. This does not happen when breathing correctly - slowly and gently, in and out your nose, all day and all night. Unfortunately, checking someone's habitual breathing pattern is not part of standard medical diagnosis, so chronic over-breathing is rarely identified.This book, written by a highly qualified and experienced physiotherapist, outlines a simple, rational explanation for what is making you snore and have sleep apnea, shows you how to identify what faulty breathing patterns you have and teaches you how to change them, step-by-step, to a more normal breathing pattern. It is scientifically proven that you can 'retrain' your breathing. The first improvements are generally seen within hours. It is common for people to sleep better right from the first night.YOU CAN CHANGE THE WAY YOU BREATHE.The author, Tess Graham, has over 30 years' clinical experience in physiotherapy, with 23 years working exclusively with breathing-related disorders. She has helped thousands of sufferers of sleep-breathing disorders, many of whom had struggled to adjust to CPAP machines. Tess has been involved in medical research and is one of the few people directly accredited by the late Professor K.P. Buteyko in his method of breathing retraining. The approach she has developed is quick, gentle, highly effective and easily do-able for busy people, the highly anxious and stressed.The book contains case studies, including with pre-and post-breathing retraining sleep studies, showing the effectiveness of the breathing retraining approach with snoring and serious sleep apnea. You will find the information in this book inspiring, compelling and life changing. Visit TessGraham.com.au or BreatheAbility.com for more information including audio products. "This book is an invaluable resource. Its easy-to-follow program shows us how to breathe the way nature intended - silently, gently and rhythmically." Dr Ross G T Walker, FRACP. Consultant Cardiologist. "This book gives a full description of the technique for getting your breathing right as well as wonderful case studies of people who have been relieved from the debilitating effects of poor sleep, snoring and sleep apnoea. My patients have found it extremely helpful and I'm so pleased to have this resource to recommend to them." Dr Kim Glass, MB ChB.
