      abstract = {"The first authoritative review on the parasomnias -  disorders that cause abnormal behavior during sleep - this  book contains many topics never before covered in detail.  The behaviors associated with parasomnias may lead to  injury of the patient or bed-partner, and may have forensic  implications. These phenomena are common but often  unrecognized, misdiagnosed, or ignored in clinical  practice. With increasing awareness of abnormal behaviors  in sleep, the book fulfils the need for in-depth  descriptions of clinical and research aspects of these  disorders, including differential diagnosis,  pathophysiology, morbidity, and functional consequences of  each condition, where known. Appropriate behavioral and  pharmacological treatments are addressed in detail. There  are authoritative sections on disorders of arousal,  parasomnias usually associated with REM sleep,  sleep-related movement disorders and other variants, and  therapy of parasomnias. Sleep specialists, neurologists,  psychiatrists, psychologists and other healthcare  professionals with an interest in sleep disorders will find  this book essential reading"--Provided by publisher.},
