Sleep Medicine features contributions from academics and leading medical practitioners in the field.

The opening section includes a review of the basic science of sleep, prominent sleep disorders, and the assessment and treatment of those disorders. After this, the book examines sleep in specific populations, such as sleep in underserved populations, and occupational sleep medicine. Finally, there is an examination of the history of the field of sleep medicine and predicts future aspects of clinical sleep practice.
