With decades of experience in both science and martial arts, van der Veere presents a unique blend of expertise and personal insight that sets this book apart from conventional sleep guides.

The book explores a wide range of factors that affect sleep, from the impact of alcohol and drugs to the benefits of physical activity and light therapy. What makes A Good Night particularly compelling is its holistic approach. Rather than focusing solely on scientific studies, van der Veere weaves in his experiences and explores sleep through different cultural perspectives, including traditional Chinese medicine and Feng Shui. This adds depth to his analysis and broadens the range of solutions he offers for common sleep problems.
With a clear and accessible writing style, van der Veere breaks down complex topics into practical advice, empowering you to take action whether you're struggling with insomnia, restless nights, or simply want to optimize your sleep quality. His background in biochemistry ensures that the recommendations are rooted in science, while his passion for martial arts and Eastern philosophies lends a mindful and balanced perspective.

In essence, A Good Night is not just a sleep guide but a comprehensive manual for achieving better health and well-being through restful, restorative sleep. Whether you're dealing with modern stressors, the effects of technology, or simply trying to create a more peaceful sleeping environment, this book offers a comprehensive approach that will reassure you and give you the confidence to achieve the rejuvenating rest you need.
