Description

Textbook Sleep, the Maximum-Strength Sleep Aid podcast, asks, “what could possibly be duller than a Text-Book of Biology by H.G. Wells? Specifically, the chapter on the biology of a rabbit? Yes, that H.G. Wells—the guy who wrote The War of the Worlds, The Time Machine, and The Island of Doctor Moreau. He was also a biologist. And wrote an entire textbook on the subject. To me, it’s a little less compelling than The Invisible Man and probably didn’t move as many copies, but who knows? At Textbook Sleep, “less compelling” is a good thing. It promises a soothing night’s rest. And—if time allows—we’ll include Wells’ take on the circulation of the dog-fish. In the unlikely event someone listening is still awake, they won’t be for long after that. Let us begin.

This recording will end quietly.
