Getting a good night’s sleep can improve your mood, cut your risk of depression, help you fight chronic disease, keep you slim and even improve your memory; so why is it that so many of us don’t prioritise the necessary 7-8 hours a night? In Fast Asleep, Dr Michael Mosley brings together the latest science to explain exactly what happens to us when we sleep and why it is so important that we get enough of it. As is Dr Mosely’s signature style, Fast Asleep is an accessible, easy read, with an excellent balance of science-based information and personal experience. Anyone looking to learn more about sleep, or trying to improve the quality of their own sleep, will find this book informative and very helpful!
