In the twenty-first century, we increasingly push our daily routines into the night, carrying out work, exercise & our social lives long after dark.

In Life Time, Professor Russell Foster shares his life's work, taking us on a fascinating & surprising journey through the science of our body clocks. Using his own studies, as well as insights from an international community of sleep scientists & biologists studying circadian rhythms, he illustrates the surprising effects the time of day can have on our health:
- how a walk outside at dawn can ensure a better night's sleep
- how eating after sundown can affect our weight
- the extraordinary effects the time we take our medication can have on our risk of life-threatening conditions, such as strokes In the modern world, we have neglected an essential part of our biology. But with knowledge of this astonishing science, we can get back into the rhythm, & live healthier, sharper lives.
