The science of sleep is changing. Recent studies are revolutionising the way we think about 'nature's second course' and its relationship to memory, decision-making and motor skills. This collection incorporates some of this new theory into storytelling and popular fiction - from memory consolidation, to the 'printing' of new memories during sleep, from sleep disorders like parasomnia, to genetic theories about insomnia.
