Más información sobre el libro
Twenty-three international experts discuss the ways in which our physiological and emotional states vary over time, and the implications of these variations for work scheduling. Contributions by a group of experts give a unique insight into the theory behing these variations. Based upon chronobiology, a relatively new discipline, this book shows how to promote greater worker safety, productivity, and general well-being by scheduling work hours that correspond closer to individual body cycles. With considerable emphasis on the important area of shift work and jet lag, it covers such topics as `burn-out,' 90-minute rhythmns, sleep deprivation,and menstrual cycles.
