Dr. William Dement, M.D., Ph.D, Director of the Stanford Sleep Disorders and Research Center, has said about this album: “Mr. Wild successfully creates a soothing and calming atmosphere which could be an excellent addition to one’s nightly sleep regimen.”   Dr. Dement is the leading authority on sleep, sleep deprivation, and the diagnosis and treatment of sleep disorders. He received his M.D. and Ph.D. from the University of Chicago where he participated in the first observations of Rapid Eye Movements during sleep, and was the first to recognize REM sleep as a distinct biological state with unique properties including vivid dreaming. In 1970, he founded the world's first sleep disorders center and in 1975 founded the American Academy of Sleep Medicine.

Dr. Dement has made many scientific contributions, among the most important of which are the elucidation of sleep debt and the long-term consequences of sleep deprivation in all components of society. He has also written an authoritative and entertaining book entitled The Promise of Sleep. To download a PDF of the Liquid Mind Sleep Tips, click here.
