Even a full moon is too much light for some nocturnal animals who lie low on moonlit nights. Eklöf addresses an incredible array of delightful topics in his call for bringing back true nighttime darkness in our rhythms with nature. In crisp chapters, the book expertly explores the place of darkness in areas like ecology, health, philosophy, mythology and even tourism. Darkness tourism, where travelers seek out the night sky, is increasingly popular. Filled with anecdotes from his travels in his homeland of Sweden, this is a heartwarming call to action, a book that drives home its points without preaching.
