Fast Asleep: How to Get a Really Good Night's Rest by Michael Mosley

2.0

Real score 2.14. I’m sorry, but I’m just so frustrated because even though this touches on it, no one and nothing in all this endless pursuit for finding a solution to my personal problem really GETS what it is to to be a permanent night shift worker and the little ‘touches on’ are even worse than not addressing it at all. Usually along the lines of: oh well, night shift work will kill you, but why don’t you take some of these ideas and work out how to fit them into your completely displaced life. And before you ask, no, I can’t do day shifts, it’s worse (for me), and I can’t go back to a rotating night and day shift because it’s worse again, and I’m too old and miserable to write a decent CV to get a different job that pays as magnificently. I’m trapped. I’m taking it out on this book. That said, it may be great for you.
