Wired by Light: What No One Is Telling You About Light and Your Children

Every night, in homes and classrooms across America, children are exposed to artificial lighting that their bodies interpret as midday sun. The result is suppressed melatonin, elevated stress hormones, and a biological clock that says it is noon when it is nine at night. And nobody is talking about it.Wired by Light traces the science of color temperature from the heliotherapy clinics of the early 1900s through the fluorescent era and into the LED revolution. It explains in plain language what decades of peer-reviewed research have documented about artificial light and children's sleep, attention, and behavioral regulation. The findings are clear, the intervention is simple, and the information has been sitting in scientific journals for forty years without reaching the parents who most need it.Until now.
