"Why We Sleep is an important and fascinating book...Walker taught me a lot about this basic activity that every person on Earth needs. I suspect his book will do the same for you." --Bill Gates

A New York Times bestseller and international sensation, this "stimulating and important book" (Financial Times) is a fascinating dive into the purpose and power of slumber.

With two appearances on CBS This Morning and Fresh Air's most popular interview of 2017, Matthew Walker has made abundantly clear that sleep is one of the most important but least understood aspects of our life. Until very recently, science had no answer to the question of why we sleep, or what good it served, or why we suffer such devastating health consequences when it is absent. Compared to the other basic drives in life--eating, drinking, and reproducing--the purpose of sleep remains more elusive.

Within the brain, sleep enriches a diversity of functions, including our ability to learn, memorize, and make logical decisions. It recalibrates our emotions, restocks our immune system, fine-tunes our metabolism, and regulates our appetite. Dreaming creates a virtual reality space in which the brain melds past and present knowledge, inspiring creativity.

In this "compelling and utterly convincing" (The Sunday Times) book, preeminent neuroscientist and sleep expert Matthew Walker provides a revolutionary exploration of sleep, examining how it affects every aspect of our physical and mental well-being. Charting the most cutting-edge scientific breakthroughs, and marshalling his decades of research and clinical practice, Walker explains how we can harness sleep to improve learning, mood and energy levels, regulate hormones, prevent cancer, Alzheimer's and diabetes, slow the effects of aging, and increase longevity. He also provides actionable steps towards getting a better night's sleep every night.

Clear-eyed, fascinating, and accessible, Why We Sleep is a crucial and illuminating book. Written with the precision of Atul Gawande, Andrew Solomon, and Sherwin Nuland, it is "recommended for night-table reading in the most pragmatic sense" (The New York Times Book Review).

Neck posture/sleep pain improvement
Item Package Quantity: 2, Size: King
Pleasantly surprised. Only had for a week now, but bought to replace these old bamboo pillows that were so flattened it was causing shoulder pain or neck tightness maybe. But that has already improved my sleep just from using this week. Ordered the kings, they come vacuum sealed and so I opened and they sat for approx 24 hours or close enough. They didn't appear as puffy so I was a little doubtful but I punched and fluffed them myself and they were good. They have improved the quality of my sleep so far. They are soft and sounds weird but it's almost like your head weight or fluffing them activate it to be fully expanded afterwards. I like them, they're comfortable for me as a mainly side sleeper/sometimes back sleeper.

Didn’t hold its shape after 1 month.
Item Package Quantity: 4, Size: Queen
been using this pillow for about a month now, and here’s my honest take. At first, it was super comfortable — soft, supportive, and perfect for getting a good night’s sleep. It gave great neck support and felt like a solid upgrade. But after a few weeks, I did notice it started to lose its shape a bit. It’s still comfortable, just not as supportive as when I first got it. I find myself fluffing it more often now.

Pillow for everyone
Item Package Quantity: 2, Size: Queen
I think this pillow is too firm. I prefer a softer pillow but wanted to try this one. I may just have to get use to it. I will keep using it and see if I cannot get use to it.
