My first contact with the other Jerome Siegel came in 1973, when I moved to Los Angeles to do postdoctoral work at UCLA. My thesis work had been listed in a nationally available posting without any address. The Brain Inf mation Service, thinking they knew where I was, listed the other Jerome Siegels Delaware address for reprint requests. I soon received a letter from Jerry along with the requests he had received and we have remained in c tact ever since. I am occasionally reminded of my namesake when I meet a new colleague who is impressed that someone so young published a paper in Science in 1965 (one year out of high school, if it had been me). I entered the field in the early 1970s just as he left. My interests in REM sleep and brainstem mechanisms have been eerily similar to his (and he also did po doctoral work at UCLA), so our research contributions can be distinguished easily only by my use of my middle initial (which has occasionally been om ted from my publications). So, my namesake and I both have an interest in seeing to it that no one brings shame to the name. The current work certainly fulfills that dictum. This is a very unusual book, both in its scope and in its approach to the terial.
