Sobre este áudio
Bloomsbury presents The Inner Clock by Lynne Peeples, read by Brittany Pressley.
How the groundbreaking science of body clocks can help you sleep better, feel happier and improve your overall health
'The Inner Clock explores the strange new science of why your circadian rhythms fall out of sync – and how to get them back on track to live a happier, healthier life'
JAMES NESTOR, BESTSELLING AUTHOR OF BREATH
Your body contains a symphony of tiny timepieces, synchronised to the sun and subtle signals in your environment and behaviour. But modern insults like artificial light, contrived time zones and late-night meals can wreak havoc on your internal clocks.
Armed with advances in biology and technology, a circadian renaissance is reclaiming those lost rhythms. The Inner Clock explores the emerging science and its transformative applications: How could taking a walk in the morning and going to bed at the same time each night keep your body in sync? Why are some doctors prescribing treatments at specific times of day? And how might a better understanding of our circadian rhythms improve educational outcomes, optimise sports performance, and support the longevity of our planet?
Science journalist Lynne Peeples seeks out the scientists, astronauts, athletes and patients at the forefront of a growing movement. Along the way, she sleeps in a Cold War-era bunker, chases the midnight sun, spits into test tubes, and wears high-tech light sensors to decipher what makes our internal clocks tick and how we can reset them for the better.
Resumo da Crítica
'A fascinating exploration of the unseen and often overlooked forces that determine so much about our moods, behaviours and health. The Inner Clock paints an elaborate picture of the ways our physiology evolved to function in harmony with the rhythms of the world around us' (James Hamblin, author of CLEAN and IF OUR BODIES COULD TALK)
'Lynne Peeples takes us on a fascinating journey through the science of circadian rhythms, revealing how our bodies’ tiny timepieces shape every aspect of our lives. But she doesn’t stop with description. She also makes a powerful case for changing our ways – for reclaiming the natural rhythms that modern life has disrupted. The Inner Clock is captivating, perceptive, and, yes, timely' (Daniel H. Pink, New York Times bestselling author of WHEN)
'A captivating exploration of light and dark, our peculiar biology, and the powerful, invisible rhythms of our waking and sleeping lives' (Deborah Blum, Pulitzer-prize winning author of THE POISON SQUAD)
