The concurrent maturation of circadian oscillator theory, the anatomic definition of circadian pacemakers in mammals, and the identification of a considerable number of persons with malfunctions of the circadian timing system have formed the basis of a new medical discipline.1Circadian rhythms relate to clinical medicine in two major ways. First, circadian rhythmicity is such a pervasive element of human physiology that its recognition has required a reassessment of many clinical diagnostic and therapeutic . . .
