Sleep is a subject which demands theological attention because of the central place it occupies in contemporary reflection on what it is to be human. In this groundbreaking book, Andrew Bishop explores sleep by creatively drawing on resources of the Christian tradition. Sleep is not a neutral force in our lives; it occupies around one third of a person's life and is the subject of research across many disciplines. This book looks at key questions that a theological treatment of sleep raises, including issues of identity and personhood, mortality, and the relation of sleep to resurrection. Original, creative and constructive, it argues for a working theology of sleep that enriches human experience in relation to God, the self and other people.

Industry Reviews

This is a brilliant book which sheds much godly light on the mystery of sleep. Sleep is surprisingly little explored, given how much of our lives we spend engaged in it. The author provides us here with a treasure trove of biblical and Christian thought, together with much original thinking, which illuminate, challenge and inspire. I commend it very highly.
