The definitive story of the scientists who set out to answer two questions: “Why do we sleep?” and "How can we sleep better?” A century ago, sleep was considered a state of nothingness—even a primitive habit that we could learn to overcome. Then, an immigrant scientist and his assistant spent a month in the depths of a Kentucky cave, making nationwide headlines and thrusting sleep science to the forefront of our consciousness. In the 1920s, Nathaniel Kleitman founded the world’s first dedicated sleep lab at the University of Chicago, where he subjected research participants (including himself) to a dizzying array of tests and tortures. But the tipping point came in 1938, when his cave experiment awakened the general public to the unknown—and vital—world of sleep. Kleitman went on to mentor the talented but troubled Eugene Aserinsky, whose discovery of REM sleep revealed the astonishing activity of the dreaming brain, and William Dement, a jazz-bass playing revolutionary who became known as the father of sleep medicine. Dement, in turn, mentored the brilliant maverick Mary Carskadon, who uncovered an epidemic of sleep deprivation among teenagers, and launched a global movement to fight it. Award-winning journalist Kenneth Miller weaves together science and history to tell the story of four outsider scientists who took sleep science from fringe discipline to mainstream obsession through spectacular experiments, technological innovation, and single-minded commitment. Listeners will walk away with a comprehensive understanding of sleep and why it affects so much of our lives.

《科学家们探索睡眠奥秘的终极故事：他们试图解答两个问题：“为什么我们需要睡觉？”和“我们如何才能睡得更好呢？” 一个世纪前，人们认为睡眠是毫无意义的状态——甚至是一个只能被克服的原始习惯。然后，一位移民科学家和他的助手在肯塔基州的一个洞穴深处度过了一个月，并在全国范围内引起了轰动，将睡眠科学推到了人们的意识前沿。20年代，纳什维尔·克莱曼在芝加哥大学建立了世界第一个专门的睡眠实验室，在那里他研究参与者（包括他自己）都遭受到了令人眼花缭乱的各种测试和折磨。 转折点出现在1938年，他在洞穴实验中唤醒了公众对未知且至关重要的睡眠世界的认识。克莱曼继续指导才华横溢但遭遇不幸的埃里康·阿斯纳斯基，他发现REM睡眠揭示了做梦大脑惊人的活动；以及一位以爵士贝斯手身份出名的进步革命者，被称为睡眠医学之父的威廉·登特。而登特则又指导了天才的叛逆者玛丽·卡斯多恩，她发现了青少年中的睡眠剥夺流行病，并启动了一场全球运动来对抗它。获奖记者肯尼斯·米勒将科学与历史交织在一起，讲述四位边缘科学家如何通过精彩实验、技术创新和一心一意的承诺将睡眠科学从边缘学科推向主流痴迷的故事。听众们会因此获得对睡眠及其对我们生活影响的全面理解。
