Provides advanced undergraduate and graduate students with a text and source book for use in courses focusing on chronobiology, the study of adaptations evolved by living organisms to cope with regular geophysical cycles in their environment. Useful in diverse programs, including neuroscience, biology, plant or medical physiology, psychology, or ecology, the text provides an overview with each chapter and uses minimal jargon and technical terminology. Eleven chapters cover such topics as the properties of circadian rhythms, circannual rhythms and photoperiodism, cell physiology of circadian pacemaker systems in Metazoan animals, human circadian organization, and the relevance of circadian rhythms for human welfare.
