Description
“A thoughtful tour through the still dimly understood state of being asleep … Why We
Sleep is a book on a mission. Walker is in love with sleep and wants us to fall in love with sleep,
too. And it is urgent. He makes the argument, persuasively, that we are in the midst of a ‘silent
sleep loss epidemic†that poses ‘the greatest public health challenge we face in the 21st
century†… Why We Sleep mounts a persuasive, exuberant case for addressing our societal
sleep deficit and for the virtues of sleep itself. It is recommended for night-table reading in the most
pragmatic sense.― —New York Times Book Review'The director of UC Berkeley's Sleep and
Neuroimaging Lab explores the purpose of slumber. Understanding the 'why,' it turns out, just
might help you with the 'how to.'' —People'A neuroscientist has found a revolutionary way of
being cleverer, more attractive, slimmer, happier, healthier and of warding off cancer — a good
nightâ€s shut-eye ... Itâ€s probably a little too soon to tell you that Why We Sleep saved
my life, but I can tell you that itâ€s been an eye-opener.' —The Guardian'This is a stimulating
and important book which you should read in the knowledge that the author is, as he puts it, 'in
love with everything that sleep is and does.' But please do not begin it just before bedtime.' —
Financial Times'Fascinating ... Walker describes how our resting habits have changed throughout
history; the connection between sleep, chronic disease, and life span; and why the pills and aids
we use to sleep longer and deeper are actually making our nights worse. Most important, he gives
us simple, actionable ways to get better rest—tonight.' —Men's Journal“Walker is a
scientist but writes for the layperson, illustrating tricky concepts with easily grasped analogies. Of
particular interest to business owners, educators, parents, and government officials, and anyone
who has ever suffered from a poor nightâ€s sleep.― —Library Journal, starred review
'Why We Sleep is simply a must-read. World-renowned neuroscientist and sleep expert Matthew
Walker takes us on a fascinating and indispensable journey into the latest understandings of
the science of sleep. And the book goes way beyond satisfying intellectual curiosity, as it
explores the cognitive, health, safety and business consequences of compromising the quality and
quantity of our sleep; insights that may change the way you live your life. In these super-charged,
distracting times it is hard to think of a book that is more important to read than this one.' —Adam
Gazzaley, co-author of The Distracted Mind, founder and executive director of Neuroscape,
and Professor of Neurology, Physiology, and Psychiatry at University of California, San
Francisco “Most of us have no idea what we do with a third of our lives. In this lucid and
engaging book, Matt Walker explains the new science that is rapidly solving this age-old mystery.

Why We Sleep is a canny pleasure that will have you turning pages well past your bedtime.―
—Daniel Gilbert, professor of psychology at Harvard and author of Stumbling on
Happiness'In Why We Sleep, Dr. Matt Walker brilliantly illuminates the night, explaining how
sleep can make us healthier, safer, smarter, and more productive. Clearly and definitively, he
provides knowledge and strategies to overcome the life-threatening risks associated with our sleepdeprived
society. Our universal need for sleep ensures that every reader will find value in Dr.
Walker's insightful counsel.' —Mark R. Rosekind, Ph.D., former NHTSA Administrator, NTSB
member, and NASA scientist Read more Matthew Walker is a professor of neuroscience and
psychology at UC Berkeley, the Director of its Sleep and Neuroimaging Lab, and a former
professor of psychiatry at Harvard University. He has published over 100 scientific studies and has

first book. Read more See all Editorial Reviews
