I expected more of the same, with perhaps an extra idea or so from all the books I've read on the subject. (Since sleep is done so many times, I figure that it is worth perfecting!!!!).
But what is in the book is so much more, as it brings out all sorts of things about how all of your body systems work and how they affect each other.
It seems that if we let one of our systems go out of whack, then the other systems cannot function as well, so he addresses them all.
The book ultimately is about living smarter, managing your life much more smartly.
I would recommend not only reading this, but making absolutely sure that you implement each of the recommended actions. It includes better gut care, better sex, hormone effects, how to exercise better, telomere care and antiaging (beyond just sleep), stress management, motivational, losing weight, how big your breakfast should be and why...and even the position to sleep in and the bed you should buy... and much more across many areas of life.
I'll be adding some more items, from this book, into my "sleep checklist" (on my site), and on a number of other checklists. I'll also be adding it as a recommended fundamental "read", for complete implementation - it is one of the few books that I find complete and smart enough to not feel I have to supplement it with my writings.
May you gain greatly from reading and implementing this book!

Guessing that it was just a scan-read, I bought the Kindle version for almost nothing. What a bargain!
I highlighted liberally and then exported (from the little "document" symbol on the side) all my highlights and notes and then printed them out as a sort of checklist of what to do.

3 chapters in and this already gets 5 stars from me. And I don't give them out easily.
I usually do not give positive reviews often (check my history). I do a TON of reading of non fiction and self help. I'm 3 chapters in and I'm already going to give this 5 stars. It's literally that good. It's very digestable, very organized, the author is clearly a "teacher" (by another teacher's standards) and knows what to say, how to say it, how to connect with people, and has a natural humor that makes it very compelling to keep listening (or in this case reading). I'm already enthralled 3 chapters and I'll probably finish the book before the week is over. I already heard about the getting to sleep at the proper time. I've been doing it for about a week and already my outlook and attitude has changed completely. Also... Whoever decided on the cover, font, layout and all of that... incredible job. I know how hard it is to nail those things down but nail them down you did. Great typeset, comfortable line height, everything was beautiful.
