From addiction expert Dr. Nicholas Kardaras, a startling argument that technology has profoundly affected the brains of children--and not for the better.
We've all seen them: kids hypnotically staring at glowing screens in restaurants, in playgrounds and in friends' houses--and the numbers are growing. Like a virtual scourge, the illuminated glowing faces--the Glow Kids--are multiplying. But at what cost? Is this just a harmless indulgence or fad like some sort of digital hula-hoop? Some say that glowing screens might even be good for kids--a form of interactive educational tool. Don't believe it. In Glow Kids, Dr. Nicholas Kardaras will examine how technology--more specifically, age-inappropriate screen tech, with all of its glowing ubiquity--has profoundly affected the brains of an entire generation. Brain imaging research is showing that stimulating glowing screens are as dopaminergic (dopamine activating) to the brain's pleasure center as sex. And a growing mountain of clinical research correlates screen tech with disorders like ADHD, addiction, anxiety, depression, increased aggression, and even psychosis. Most shocking of all, recent brain imaging studies conclusively show that excessive screen exposure can neurologically damage a young person's developing brain in the same way that cocaine addiction can. Kardaras will dive into the sociological, psychological, cultural, and economic factors involved in the global tech epidemic with one major goal: to explore the effect all of our wonderful shiny new technology is having on kids. Glow Kids also includes an opt-out letter and a quiz for parents in the back of the book.Binding Type: Paperback

This twin size mattress exceeded my expectations. It’s very comfortable, supportive, and has the perfect balance between softness and firmness. I wake up without back pain and sleep much more comfortably now. The mattress arrived in great condition and was easy to set up. It’s a great option for the price, and the quality feels amazing. I would definitely buy it again and recommend it to others.

I bought this set of pillows and they have exceeded my expectations. They are pleasantly soft and provide good support for sleeping. The size is standard and fits perfectly with regular pillowcases.
I like that they maintain their shape after use and that they don't feel too hard or too soft. In addition, the material feels cool and of good quality.
Overall, they are a very good option if you're looking for comfortable, functional pillows at an affordable price. I would definitely buy them again.

Soft, Fluffy & Decently Supportive

These pillows are wonderfully soft and fluffy, making them great to sleep on.
They hold their shape well, especially if you get the version with a protective cover.

Overall, a great pillow pick that works exactly as expected.
