Recommended Reading List

On this page: a personal selection of nonfiction books about sleep, links to notable articles and podcast episodes.

The books you’ll find on this page are my personal favourites.

This Reading List includes writing on sleep disorders, sleeplessness, and sleep in general to better understand why we do and need it, and how it effects the human body.
