    Prof. Horne of the Sleep Research Centre

    This is The Science of Sleep – not the dream sequence film, but a look at how and why we sleep.  Have you ever fallen asleep unexpectedly (theatre, cinema, bath, etc)?  How does it change you if you dont get a “good nights sleep”?  Have you ever seen a car swerve on the road and wondered if the drivers eyelids may have closed for longer than a blink?
    “Sleep knits the ravelled sleeve of care,” said Macbeth as he reached his low point, and we all know that things can look better in the morning.  Surely there must be more to sleep than the idea that being tired makes you feel bad and being well rested makes you feel good.
