Why sleep is so important: Matthew Walker, director of the sleep laboratory at UC Berkeley , shares groundbreaking research that highlights the powerful impact of healthy sleep. Sleep is one of the most essential — yet often underestimated — foundations of a long, healthy, and fulfilling life.

According to Walker’s research, proper sleep can improve learning, mood, appearance, and overall well-being while also helping to reduce the risk of illnesses such as cancer, dementia, heart disease, and diabetes. It also strengthens the immune system and supports both physical and mental health.

An international bestseller with translation rights sold in more than 30 countries, this book offers a compelling look at the science of sleep and why it matters so deeply to our everyday lives.
