Dreamland

A journalist, spurred by a sleepwalking injury, got obsessed with sleep, and this book is the result. Delving into the culture and science of sleep, from battlefields to bedrooms, David Randall shows that sleep isn't nearly as simple as it seems. In fact, it's one of the most complex and little-understood aspects of our humanity. He offers some lurid case studies like the case of a sleepwalking murderer and a sleep study that changed the Monday Night Football betting odds, and examines questions like gender differences in sleep habits and quality.
