Summary

Strange Sleep Phenomena explores the intriguing world of nocturnal disturbances, offering insights into experiences like sleepwalking, sleep talking, and exploding head syndrome. The book delves into the science behind these parasomnias, revealing the neurological and psychological factors that contribute to these unusual occurrences. Readers will discover how modern sleep research, using tools like polysomnography, helps us understand the brain activity underlying these phenomena, moving beyond early supernatural explanations. Understanding these often bizarre experiences is vital, as they can lead to daytime fatigue, anxiety, and even physical harm.

 
The book progresses by first establishing a foundation in sleep architecture, explaining sleep stages and related brainwave patterns. Each chapter then focuses on specific parasomnias, discussing their triggers, potential consequences, and management techniques. A unique element is the book's emphasis on the subjective experiences of individuals who live with these conditions, providing a voice to their emotional and social challenges. By connecting sleep science to fields like neurology and psychology, Strange Sleep Phenomena demystifies these experiences and empowers readers to seek appropriate support.

    PERCEPTIONS consists of short pieces, poetry or poem-like essays, written over a period of thirty years, on various serious and reflective topics, but with some humorous and occasional work too. As in Gillian Bickley's previous collections, the subjects occur internationally: this time, in the Pyrenees, Nigeria, Hawai'i, Albania, as well as Hong Kong. Taken as a whole, this fifth poetry collection recognizes the need for shelter and survival, the desire for love, for achievement, for feelings of self-worth, for objects on which to bestow reciprocal affection and the search for high-order achievements beyond the self. Reaching beyond this, Perceptions considers the needs of other species, our responsibilities towards them and the fragile environment that we all share. 
    "The poignance of her many perceptions crowds upon us." -- Stuart Christie 
    "This collection addresses universal topics in a thoughtful manner using common sense that most readers can appreciate. – Cairns Media Magazine 
    "An interesting addition to home-grown literature" – Clarissa Sebag-Montefiore, Sunday Morning Post, Hong Kong,17 June 2012
