Product details

The book that finally sheds light onWhat is that funny twitch when we fall asleep? Why do we snore when we have drunk alcohol? How can we determine our dreams ourselves?
And what does sleep deprivation do to us? Albrecht Vorster is a sleep researcher and science slammer - he links the latest research vividly and entertainingly with many case studies and everyday situations that everyone knows. Vorster explains why our immune system goes crazy when we lack sleep, why sleeping pills are the number one drug of the people and yet don't work, what really helps against sleep problems, how everyone can find out for themselves how long they need to sleep to be fit - and why we need to sleep at all. The book that finally brings light into the dark!..
