conditions—from insomnia to sleep apnea to restless leg syndrome and circadian sleep disorders

Book needed more science and less opinion

Audible narration was done by someone with a very annoying southern accent.
I wanted more science and statistics and cultural references like the book “Why we sleep” and less lecturing and opinion. But the content was fine. It sounds like it came from a physician.

I learned so much more about sleep issues.

Well written, amusing and filled with important health information. This a book for sharing with family and friends. I have had sleep issues from childhood and didn't know it.

Informative and enjoyable

Dr. Winter reads it himself. Such good info that I bought the paperback to reference later. He actually makes this informative book enjoyable emeith his humor. Good book!

Very helpful

While I can’t use everything from this book, I can use a good portion of it. For that reason, I think it’s a great tool if one is having trouble sleeping. I’ve been working on my sleep for a couple of years now, and this put the nail in my coffin so to speak. I sleep a lot better having read this book.

Thank you!

I’m so grateful for this book. It was so tremendously helpful for me to sleep better and gain all the associated benefits. The author was also really fun and Amusing. :-)
