  In “Sleep”, Carlos H. Schenck, M.D., a leading sleep expert with over 40 years experience, presents a probing exploration of sleep, an activity that occupies over 200,000 hours of our lives. This timeless book delves into the intricate processes of sleep and the peculiar dysfunctions that can emerge, ranging from common issues like insomnia and sleep apnea to the more mysterious and extreme disorders known as “parasomnias”. These include dream enactment, sleep related eating disorder, sexsomnia, night terrors, and sleep violence, which surprisingly affect millions. 
  What distinguishes Dr. Schenck's work is his focus on the forefront of sleep science, particularly in identifying and treating parasomnias. He reveals their connection to more typical sleep problems and the implications for their treatment. The book is enriched with startling real-life examples from Dr. Schenck's extensive clinical practice, such as a woman who discovers chocolate wrappers in her bed upon waking or a man who, in his sleep, mistakenly perceives his wife as a threat. These narratives, drawn directly from patient experiences, illustrate the often terrifying and dangerous aspects of these disorders, offering hope and solutions to those affected and their families. 
  Significantly, each chapter of the book encompasses a wide range of sleep disorders, enriched with personal stories reported by Dr. Schenck's patients. These accounts provide an intimate first-person perspective on living with these conditions, making the book a uniquely relevant and comprehensive guide for anyone suffering from sleep disorders. By combining engaging patient narratives with the latest in medical research, "Sleep" serves as an essential resource for understanding and navigating the complex world of sleep disorders, shedding light on one of our most enigmatic medical puzzles.

  Science and Technology in...

  The modern world has the ancient Romans to thank for the origins of many modern technologies, conveniences, and ideas, from running water, baths, and republican style government to roads. Similarly, by the 3rd century BCE, the Romans were prodigious monument builders, so much so that the memory of the great Roman Republic and the Roman Empire continues to exist within a cityscape of stone. Rome’s public spaces were filled with statues, arches, temples, and many other varieties of monumental images, and each of these structures had its own civic or religious function. At the same time, most were embedded with stories, messages, and symbolism so that they also tended to function as propaganda. These monuments allowed the leading citizens of Rome, especially its emperors, to sculpt their own self-image and embed themselves and their most memorable deeds into the very structure of the Roman city.  
  	While some of the most famous examples, like the Colosseum and Pantheon, remain striking testaments to Roman engineering and technology, many of the scientific advances the Romans ushered into the world were smaller in scope but not necessarily any less important. Indeed, the Roman Empire was not just one of the most technologically advanced civilizations within the ancient world but also proportionately one of the most prolific throughout all history. A substantial number of these innovations were lost following the eventual fall of the Western Roman Empire in 476 and the subsequent centuries of decline of the Byzantine Empire starting in the early 7th century, but rediscoveries of their advancements began during the later Middle Ages and the beginning of the Modern Era (c. 1400s). Some of their ideas and designs are only now being improved upon thanks to newer, far more advanced modern technologies.

  Elephantiasis, also known as lymphatic filariasis, is a neglected tropical disease that has impacted millions of people worldwide, causing not only physical disability but also significant social and psychological suffering. While the disease is often overlooked in global health discussions, its consequences are far-reaching, affecting the lives of individuals, families, and entire communities. This book seeks to provide a comprehensive overview of lymphatic filariasis, focusing on its diagnosis, prevention, and treatment options, with the ultimate goal of contributing to the global effort to eliminate this debilitating disease. 
  Lymphatic filariasis is caused by parasitic worms transmitted through the bites of infected mosquitoes. These worms invade the lymphatic system, causing inflammation, severe swelling, and disfigurement. In its chronic form, the disease can lead to lifelong disability, including the development of elephantiasis—a condition characterized by massive swelling, often in the legs or genitalia. Despite its devastating effects, the disease is preventable and treatable, and significant strides have been made toward its global elimination. 
  This book is intended for a wide range of readers, including healthcare professionals, policymakers, public health officials, students, and individuals affected by lymphatic filariasis. It aims to bridge the knowledge gap by presenting detailed information on the disease’s pathophysiology, diagnostic techniques, and treatment options, while also exploring the social and economic challenges that hinder effective control. By providing evidence-based insights and practical recommendations, the book encourages a multi-faceted approach to tackling the disease, emphasizing the importance of prevention, early detection, and integrated care.
