Title: Brilliant Author: Jane Brox Narrator: Randye Kaye Format: mp3 Length: 10 hrs and 15 mins Release date: 01-15-19 Ratings: 4 out of 5 stars, 16 ratings Genres: History Publisher's Summary: Brilliant offers a sweeping view of a surprisingly revealing aspect of human history - from the stone lamps of the Pleistocene to the LEDs embedded in fabrics of the future. Jane Brox plumbs the class implications of light - who had it, who didn't - through the many centuries when crude lamps and tallow candles constricted waking hours. Brillant is infused with human voices, startling insights, and - only a few years before it becomes illegal to sell most incandescent light bulbs in the United States - timely questions about how our future lives will be shaped by light.
