A review by pejahanako
The Nocturnal Brain: Nightmares, Neuroscience, and the Secret World of Sleep by Guy Leschziner

informative medium-paced

4.25

My first true introduction to sleep neuroscience, and a thorough overview of the related disorders. Leschziner's writing isn't anything mind blowing, but the case study format of this book makes each piece of knowledge personable and memorable. So many quotes are included which shows a lot of journalistic mastery, and facts are interspersed without the usual density of neuroscience literature. I thoroughly enjoyed this book, found it quick to read, and learned an incredible amount for just one book.
