Acerca de esta escucha
Early birds and night owls are born, not made. Sleep patterns are the most obvious manifestation of the highly individualized biological clocks we inherit, but these clocks also regulate bodily functions from digestion to hormone levels to cognition. By understanding and respecting our internal time, we can live better.

Historia
Everyone knows that timing is everything. But we don't know much about timing itself. Our lives are a never-ending stream of "when" decisions: when to start a business, schedule a class, get serious about a person. Yet we make those decisions based on intuition and guesswork. Timing, it's often assumed, is an art. In When: The Scientific Secrets of Perfect Timing, Pink shows that timing is really a science.

Historia
There are 168 hours in a week. This book is about where the time really goes, and how we can all use it better. It's an unquestioned truth of modern life: we are starved for time. With the rise of two-income families, extreme jobs, and 24/7 connectivity, life is so frenzied we can barely find time to breathe. We tell ourselves we'd like to read more, get to the gym regularly, try new hobbies, and accomplish all kinds of goals.

Historia
Learn the best time to do everything - from drink your coffee to have sex, or go for a run - according to your body's chronotype. Most advice centers on what to do, or how to do it, and ignores the when of success. But exciting new research proves there is a right time to do just about everything, based on our biology and hormones. As Dr. Michael Breus proves in The Power of When, working with your body's inner clock for maximum health, happiness, and productivity is easy, exciting, and fun.

Kafka is one of 161 inspired-and inspiring-minds, among them, novelists, poets, playwrights, painters, philosophers, scientists, and mathematicians, who describe how they subtly maneuver the many (self-inflicted) obstacles and (self-imposed) daily rituals to get done the work they love to do, whether by waking early or staying up late; whether by self-medicating with doughnuts or bathing, drinking vast quantities of coffee, or taking long daily walks.

Sleep is one of the most important but least understood aspects of our life, wellness, and longevity. Until very recently, science had no answer to the question of why we sleep, or what good it served, or why we suffer such devastating health consequences when we don't sleep. Compared to the other basic drives in life - eating, drinking, and reproducing - the purpose of sleep remained elusive.

The majority of mortals, Paulinus, complain bitterly of the spitefulness of Nature, because we are born for a brief span of life, because even this space that has been granted to us rushes by so speedily and so swiftly that all save a very few find life at an end just when they are getting ready to live. Nor is it merely the common herd and the unthinking crowd that bemoan what is, as men deem it, an universal ill; the same feeling has called forth complaint also from men who were famous.

Full of extraordinary facts (your body made a million red blood cells since you started reading this) and irresistible Bryson-esque anecdotes, The Body will lead you to a deeper understanding of the miracle that is life in general and you in particular. As Bill Bryson writes, "We pass our existence within this wobble of flesh and yet take it almost entirely for granted."

When it comes to health, there is one criminally overlooked element: sleep. Good sleep helps you shed fat for good, stave off disease, stay productive, and improve virtually every function of your mind and body. That's what Shawn Stevenson learned when a degenerative bone disease crushed his dream of becoming a professional athlete. Like many of us, he gave up on his health and his body...until he decided there must be a better way.

Steven Strogatz, a leading mathematician in the fields of chaos and complexity theory, explains how enormous systems can synchronize themselves, from the electrons in a superconductor to the pacemaker cells in our hearts. He shows that although these phenomena might seem unrelated on the surface, at a deeper level there is a connection, forged by the unifying power of mathematics.

Steven Strogatz, a leading mathematician in the fields of chaos and complexity theory, explains how enormous systems can synchronize themselves, from the electrons in a superconductor to the pacemaker cells in our hearts. He shows that although these phenomena might seem unrelated on the surface, at a deeper level there is a connection, forged by the unifying power of mathematics.

In Your Brain Is a Time Machine, brain researcher and best-selling author Dean Buonomano draws on evolutionary biology, physics, and philosophy to present his influential theory of how we tell and perceive time. The human brain, he argues, is a complex system that not only tells time but creates it; it constructs our sense of chronological flow and enables "mental time travel" - simulations of future and past events.

Andrew Smart wants you to sit and do nothing much more often - and he has the science to explain why. At every turn we’re pushed to do more, faster, and more efficiently: That drumbeat resounds throughout our wage-slave society. Multitasking is not only a virtue, it’s a necessity. But Andrew Smart argues that slackers may have the last laugh. The latest neuroscience shows that the “culture of effectiveness” is not only ineffective, it can be harmful to your well-being.

A real pleasure!
This book kept me engaged from story to finish as it walks along the journey meandering between body clock and social clock. Both non-scientist and scientists will get something out of it. The reading is perfect in rhythm as in pronunciation. The illustrations are thoroughly explained and can easily be followed verbally and a pdf also accompanied the audio book.

Required Reading for Humans
This book provides an inclusive and scientifically supported exposition on sleep. Not only will you learn how sleep works on a theoretical level, you will also understand the practical consequences.
For example, Roenneberg explains that every person has a certain chronotype (from "early" to "late"). The biological clock of early chronotypes generates "internal days" shorter than 24 hours. This biological clock needs to be synchronised to the actual or "external" day/night cycle, resulting from the earth's rotation. This synchronisation happens (among other things) primarily through exposure to light. To synchronise a shorter "internal day", a person needs to be exposed to more light, which means waking earlier. The reverse is true for "late" chronotypes.
Your chronotype also dictates bodily functions (like appetite) and performance (like alertness or problem solving). A person with a late chronotype is therefore much more likely to perform worse in the morning than a person with an early chronotype. For such a person, morning can feel more like the middle of the night!
Furthermore, Roenneberg explains that your biological clock is in fact a biological phenomenon that cannot be altered by "simply showing some discipline". As he puts it: "early birds and night owls are born, not made".
Unfortunately, this is poorly understood in our "nine to five" society. A person with a late chronotype is often perceived as inferior. (This is even evident is our language, e.g. "the early bird gets the worm".) This person actually experiences "social" jet lag (possibly for his/her entire life). This social jet lag is similar to actual jet leg, in the sense that it is as if living in one time zone, while going to work in another. Needless to say, this has an enormous impact on a person's quality of life.
All of this and more is explained in clear language, but with scientific authority. I also found the book to be just the right length.
I believe this book contains knowledge every person should be aware of. At the very least people who struggle with sleep in any way should read this book. It will provide you with a great many insights.

VERY Detailed, VERY
I chose this book after reading Daniel Pink's latest book "Timing" . Pink recommended this book in chronotypes. The book is quite detailed as Pink indicated. a bit too detailed and scholarly for my interest on this topic.
However, I love the idea is chronotypes and fitting your life into your energy and chronotypes.

I learned a lot about my own chronotype and how we as humans beings should work to better understand how to take others' into consideration for work and relationships.

Good
This is a good book with many interesting takes. However, maybe because I had read about the theme in other books, this one did not bring me many new insights. I’m addition, I did not like much the way the book was structured.
Anyhow, if you never read about internal time, this is a good start.

Frustratingly boring
Went through half of the book and couldn't tolerate it more. the contents of the book seems mostly conjecture and is not very usable.
interpretation of behaviour of mine and algae and trying to relate to human clock cycles - I don't get the point.
the book seems very academic and might well be taken that way if it can be ascertained that the facts are indeed factual and not conjecture
