Drawing on scientific research, personal anecdotes, and interviews with experts in various fields, Huffington presents a compelling argument for prioritizing sleep as a key factor in achieving overall well-being.

The book delves into the history of our relationship with sleep and how it has evolved over time, highlighting the negative impact of our current "sleep-deprived society." Huffington discusses the many consequences of sleep deprivation, including impaired cognitive function, increased risk of chronic health issues, and diminished creativity.

She also examines the cultural and societal factors that contribute to our collective lack of sleep, such as the glorification of busyness and the constant connectivity of the digital age.
