The first sleep book by a leading scientific expert—Professor Matthew Walker, Director of UC Berkeley’s Sleep and Neuroimaging Lab—reveals his groundbreaking exploration of sleep, explaining how we can harness its transformative power to change our lives for the better.

Sleep is one of the most important but least understood aspects of our life, wellness, and longevity. Until very recently, science had no answer to the question of why we sleep, or what good it served, or why we suffer such devastating health consequences when we don't sleep. Compared to the other basic drives in life—eating, drinking, and reproducing—the purpose of sleep remained elusive.

An explosion of scientific discoveries in the last twenty years has shed new light on this fundamental aspect of our lives. Now, preeminent neuroscientist and sleep expert Matthew Walker gives us a new understanding of the vital importance of sleep and dreaming. Within the brain, sleep enriches our ability to learn, memorize, and make logical decisions. It recalibrates our emotions, restocks our immune system, fine-tunes our metabolism, and regulates our appetite. Dreaming mollifies painful memories and creates a virtual reality space in which the brain melds past and present knowledge to inspire creativity.

Walker answers important questions about sleep: how do caffeine and alcohol affect sleep? What really happens during REM sleep? Why do our sleep patterns change across a lifetime? How do common sleep aids affect us and can they do long-term damage? Charting cutting-edge scientific breakthroughs, and synthesizing decades of research and clinical practice, Walker explains how we can harness sleep to improve learning, mood, and energy levels; regulate hormones; prevent cancer, Alzheimer’s, and diabetes; slow the effects of aging; increase longevity; enhance the education and lifespan of our children, and boost the efficiency, success, and productivity of our businesses. Clear-eyed, fascinating, and accessible, Why We Sleep is a crucial and illuminating book

这是一本比尔盖茨推荐的书,无意中找到了台版的EPUB文档。如果你仅仅想找一本关于如何快速睡眠技巧的书籍,那这本书并不适合,这是一本略微带有学术味道的书籍。全书分为四个部分,每个部分可以分开独立阅读。 第一部分:睡眠是什么?这一部分主要讲解了关于睡眠的科学解释以及...

睡眠不足的危害微信微博上到處可見。這本書簡單來說就是再次重申睡眠不足對於身體,情緒等各方麵的負麵影響。我覺得比較有意思的是,原來REM做夢的時候,身體應該是處於paralyzed的狀態的,大腦好神奇。還有sleep on it是有科學根據的。有的篇幅略冗餘。總結下來睡眠很重要,要重視,說起來比做起來容易,要真正做到不簡單。

總之,鼓吹每天睡三小時看四點鍾的洛杉磯,是現代人類最愚蠢的觀念之一。普通的說,這本書講的很多新研究結論很有意思,比如晚上喝酒、吃褪黑素對睡眠其實危害巨大。但是我更看重作者的私貨:“既然演化讓幾乎所有動物都具有睡眠這種近乎自殺性的行為,那麼一定有什麼重要得要命的理由。”作者對這個理由的猜測是我見過的最接近準確的答案:nREM睡眠是騰空臨時記憶空間,而REM睡眠是將這些存儲轉移到永久存儲中;而夢的作用是讓人對一段記憶安全地去除感情。
