A personal reminiscence of Michel Jouvet: the poet of paradoxical sleep

Others will surely write about the scientific accomplishments of Michel Jouvet, his appointments to many scientific academies, his time in the French underground movement during World War II, as well as the awards he received from around the world. However, I would like to present another side of one of the great figures of our time. He was born in Lons-le-Saunier, a town in the eastern part of  France, and died in Villeurbanne, which borders Lyon. Michel Jouvet's teenage years were spent under Nazi occupation.
