He shares the stories of scientists, artists, travel writers, child-care experts and many others who have a great deal to tell us about how we do - and don\'t - sleep."Sleep is a very complicated issue that touches probably everyone you know. It\'s not just adults," says Jeff. "We\'re talking about teenagers have sleep issues, even children."Smartphones, tablets and other devices have made the problem even worse.
