Why do we sleep. New Science about sleep and dreams

Until recently, science did not have a complete idea of ​​the mechanisms of sleep, about the whole variety of its beneficial influence and why the consequences of chronic lack of sleep for health. The outstanding neurologist and scientist Matthew Walker summarizes the data of the latest research of the sleeping phenomenon and invites to talk to topics related to one of the most important aspects of our existence.
“Dream is the only and most effective action that we can take to regulate the work of our brain and body every day. This is the best weapon of mother nature in the confrontation of death. Unfortunately, the real evidence explaining all the dangers that a person and society in the event of a lack of sleep undergoes are still not fully conveyed to people. This is the most egregious omission in today"s talk about health. My book is called to fix it, and I really hope that it will turn for a fascinating journey full of discoveries for the reader. In addition, the book is aimed at a revision of sleep assessment and a change in the neglect of it. ” (Matthew Walker)
