Andrew Bishop is a Canon of Guildford Cathedral, Coordinating Chaplain to the University of Surrey and author of Eucharist Shaping and Herbert's Liturgy and Society: Church, Mission and Personhood (Ashgate/Routledge: 2016)

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.

• Introduction. 1. Into Your Hands, O Lord, I Commend My Spirit. 2. I Will Lie Down and Sleep. 3. Be Sober, Be Vigilant. 4. As the Night Watch Looks For the Morning. Conclusion: I Will Awake the Dawn.
