This volume is part of a series which looks at the quest for scientific solutions to the mysterious, unanswered questions which surround us in our everyday lives. Why do we need to sleep? What happens when we sleep? Why do we dream? This book looks at how people have sought to explain the mystery of sleep, throughout history and across different cultures. It traces the major advances in sleep research, such as monitoring and interpreting brain wave patterns, and investigating animal sleep. The book describes the work of scientists as they try to understand sleep problems and find practical solutions to them. Lesley Newson has also written "Dealing with Dirt" and "Meatballs and Molecules".
