Sleepfaring: A journey through the science of sleep
Horne, Jim (, Professor of Psychophysiology and Director of the Sleep Research Centre at the University of Loughborough)
Why do we sleep? How much sleep do we normally need, and what happens if you don't get enough? This book gives an account of what science has found out about sleep. It brings in brain physiology, psychology, medicine, and social factors, and examines controversy such as research on the amount of sleep we actually need.
