review:
Date read is a wild guess…I happened to remember this book after someone tweeted about first sleep/second sleep, then posted an Ask MetaFilter question because I couldn’t remember the name! http://ask.metafilter.com/208842/Look…
I do remember that I enjoyed it, and little bits of what I learned from it still filter into my head from time to time. (Ergo first/second sleep, which is something I learned about in that book. Very common before industrialization, people falling asleep at dark, waking for a while in the middle of the night, then sleeping again. Was totally normal, is almost forgotten today.) I’d sort of like to read it again.
