Leading sleep researcher Rosalind Cartwright brings together decades of work on sleep, dreaming, and sleep disorders to propose a new theory of how the mind works continuously. Drawing on her own research and that of others, Cartwright describes how conscious and unconscious thoughts and feelings move forward - from waking, into sleep and dreaming, to the next waking day. One main purpose of sleep is to regulate disturbing emotions. Not everyone does this successfully every night.

When Henry Nicholls was 21, he was diagnosed with narcolepsy: a medical disorder causing him to fall asleep with no warning.

Dreaming takes place when you’re in a profound sleep. It’s often said that dreams represent our subconscious thoughts and feelings, which has led to the mysterious field of dream analysis. The word "lucid" comes from the Latin word "luscious", which means "shine". The Latin word and prefix "Luc" refer to "light". As a result, anything that is ‘lucid’ is related to having clarity. Lucid things can be seen and understood clearly.

Are there times when you wake up with a smile on your face, but cannot recollect your dream?

Sleep is one of the most important aspects of our life, health and longevity and yet it is increasingly neglected in 21st century society, with devastating consequences: every major disease in the developed world - Alzheimer's, cancer, obesity, diabetes - has very strong causal links to deficient sleep.

Compared to the other basic drives in life - eating, drinking and reproducing - the purpose of sleep remained elusive.
