《睡不醒的女人：嗜睡症与睡眠的科学》[有声书]
Quinn Eastman, Tom Perkins (Narrator), "The Woman Who Couldn't Wake Up: Hypersomnia and the Science of Sleepiness"
Sleep was taking over Anna's life. Despite multiple alarm clocks and stimulants, the young lawyer could sleep for thirty or even fifty hours at a stretch. She stopped working and began losing weight because she couldn't stay awake long enough to eat. Anna's doctors didn't know how to help her until they tried an oddball drug, connected with a hunch that something produced by her body was putting her to sleep.
The Woman Who Couldn't Wake Up tells Anna's story—and the broader story of her diagnosis, idiopathic hypersomnia (IH), a shadowy sibling of narcolepsy that has emerged as a focus of sleep research and patient advocacy. Quinn Eastman explores the science around sleepiness, recounting how researchers have been searching for more than a century for the substances that tip the brain into slumber. He argues that investigation of IH could unlock new understandings of how sleep is regulated. Eastman foregrounds the experiences of people with IH, relating how publicity around Anna's successful treatment helped others form a community.
Sharing emerging science and powerful stories, this book testifies to the significance of underrecognized diseases and sheds new light on how our brains function, day and night. It is a must-listen for anyone interested in sleep and sleep disorders, including those affected by or seeking to treat them.
安娜的生活已经被睡眠吞噬。尽管她多次使用闹钟和刺激药物，这位年轻的律师仍然可以连续睡上30小时甚至50小时。她停止工作并且开始消瘦了，因为她无法维持清醒太久以进食。
《一个无法醒来的人：嗜睡症的科学与瞌睡》讲述安娜的故事——以及她的诊断和不可名状的嗜睡症（IH）这个病症在睡眠研究和患者倡导中的故事。Quinn Eastman探讨了关于瞌睡的科学研究，重新讲述了科学家们在过去一个多世纪里一直在寻找能够促使大脑进入昏睡状态的物质。他主张对IH的研究有可能揭示如何调控睡眠的新理解。Eastman强调了患有IH的人的生活体验，并讲述安娜成功治疗的故事是如何帮助其他患者建立了一个社区。
分享最新的科学研究和有力的故事，这本书为那些被忽视的疾病的意义发声，并且为日间及夜间的大脑运作方式带来新的见解。对于对睡眠以及睡眠障碍感兴趣的人来说，这是一本不容错过的书籍，包括受到或试图治疗这些病症的人。
