While he does briefly cover different types of beds and furniture meant for sleeping and relaxing, as well as superstitions and fads for sleeping and certain types of sleep-paraphernalia, one of the more intriguing things is the way he peppers each short chapter with quotations from writers or stories about the writers.
It's a fluffy book, light and amusing, but by no means lacking in research. It simply gives a broad overview of all sorts of things that could fall under the topic of "lying down", and says "isn't this interesting?" A bibliography at the back will guide readers to more in depth information when desired. ( )
