Review # 1 was written on 2016-01-06 00:00:00 Matthew Uhl I was thoroughly disappointed with this book. Hobson tends to ramble and doesn't explain the science behind sleep much at all. He didn't explore neurology as much as he should have and his comments on evolution are very backdated. It is a big disappointment.

Review # 2 was written on 2019-05-16 00:00:00 Marissa Hurwitz Right after I was suggested to read this book, I had a social science dream very similar to what I was experiencing at the university. It's difficult to quantify this field. (It's a shame I don't recall the specific name of the professor who taught PSC200! I use that textbook to better understand trends in society. Some lady... The WCU website does not help. Perhaps that's deliberate - you have to ask around campus? Я не снаю... at least I don't know for sure. That's something I'd be interested to study in the future! Quantifiers по-русски! I don't know how to get there yet but I think I could eventually!) I am determined! You know, actually? That's really strange! When I was younger, I did a lot of learning Russian when I was semi-conscious, almost asleep. I was practically in a dreaming state. So that is why I am thinking of that beautiful language specifically when I think of this book. The book itself talks mostly about REM stuff, you know, the whole nine yards, all the stuff which you've already researched online. I liked its graphs and pictures: particularly the one on p60 which identified how EEGs tend to go. Having had two or three which I remember, I can safely say mine looked like none of those three. Then again, I was never strictly asleep when I was having an EEG taken, and the three graphs are of calm people sleeping - also, my mind is more unique than New York. The REM for nightmares is much more like what my graph resembled, unfortunately. How peculiar. I have a lot of terrors when I'm asleep, so that's why I don't like to sleep. So, if you want to learn about this stuff too, pick this book up! Interesno material.
