Summary:"Discovered in 1998, the orexin system lies at the core of the sleep and wake state regulation inside our brain. This book summarizes recent research, ideas and perspectives from some of the most influential researchers in the fields of hypocretin/orexin and sleep. For example, it explains the intricate role of the orexin system in the different sleep phases and in the pathways that are related to memory and cognition. It also provides an overview of diseases which are caused by, or associated with, a dysfunctional orexin system, such as narcolepsy, insomnia, substance abuse, or Alzheimer's disease"--
