The psychology of sleep

APPENDIX E BIBLIOGRAPHY

Reading edition

It is surprising how little has been written about Sleep, and what a small part of what has been written is worth reading. Perhaps the best book, certainly the most exhaustive, is Marie Manacéïne’s “Sleep,” which contains a full but disorderly Bibliography.

Except in the case of American works, which might easily have escaped Marie Manacéïne’s attention, I have not tried to go further back than that Bibliography, as she was most industrious in research; I have only cut out from her list what seemed the more obsolete or needless works. But with the help of A. T. Craig and others, I have carried it, as far as may be, down to date.
