Why do we sleep? Do we know how we cross from waking to sleep? And dreams and nightmares how do they fit in?  These questions and more are addressed in The Secret Life of Sleep. For the lucky majority sleep comes easily for others it’s an elusive beast, for many in the West our unhealthy life styles chase away a good sleep pattern. Find out what we know and don’t know about sleep, an investigation that will lead to a greater understanding of our need to sleep.
