From the Back Cover
The body is fascinating: Behind the scenes the autonomic nervous system is usually quietly working to keep things regulated. Disruptions to our natural rythms can have some implications though. The effects of jet lag and shift lag are discussed in this book. Also discussed are interventions that can help to reduce some of the stress that the body experiences. With so many risks and so few benefits, there is no reason not to look at the schedule you keep. Even if variations are part of your life, there are steps you can take to reduce the chance that jet lag will be a problem for you.
