As the publisher's description says, "Philosophers have largely ignored sleep, treating it as a useless negativity, mere repose for the body or at best a source for the production of unconscious signs out of the night of the soul." And one of their own reviewers says this: “A truly original examination of the most universally overlooked human experience.” Universally overlooked? One marvels at the ignorance and provincialism of some academics. In any case Nancy is interesting and this book might be of some value - I have not read it.
