Synopses

Covid-19

Tracing a novel virus from its emergence in China at the end of 2019 to its rapid worldwide spread, Dr Mosley draws on scientific discoveries and expert insight. He explains how the coronavirus spreads, how it infects the body and how the immune system responds. The book also covers efforts to develop treatments and a safe, effective vaccine.

Fast Asleep

Dr Michael Mosley describes what happens during sleep, what can trigger common sleep problems and why standard advice does not always work. He discusses taking part in sleep experiments and testing a range of remedies. A four-week programme, based on the latest science, is included with the aim of helping to re-establish a healthy sleep pattern.

The Fast 800

Bringing together recent science on intermittent fasting, Dr Michael Mosley introduces Time Restricted Eating within a structured programme. The book references studies that suggest 800 calories as a key figure for dieting, described as manageable while supporting weight loss and metabolic change.
