The importance of understanding how lighting affects us  Oct 02, 2002 By Michelle Orton
This book explains how lighting affects our lives and our children's lives. It explains why we can be suffering from migraine headaches, not able to catch balls, have reading problems (poor comprehension, eye strain, difficulty in seeing the printed page correctly, become fidgety, etc).

This is a book that all educators, school administrators, physicians, those in the field of optometry, social workers, prison personnel, and especially politicians should read. An even more important group of people who should read this book are parents. You are the ones that can make things happen for your children.

When you discover how lighting can affect your life, you will certainly want to know what to do about it. This book tells everything you need to know about how to change your life if you or someone you know is light sensitive.

The Light Barrier  Jul 20, 2005 By William N. Blatt "thinker"
This is a thought-provoking book. The subject is a complicated phenominon that should be examined by peer review in similar, less anecdotal evidence. As a graduate engineer and a long-time photographer, I am aware of some of the properties of light itself as perceived by humans, and view this subject with considerable interest. One of my grandchildren has benefited substantially from Irlen prescribed glasses. Thus,I look forward to future examination of this phenominon.


The Light Barrier  Oct 01, 2002 By Patricia J. Johnson
The Light Barrier is a comprehensive book about light based reading problems. As an individual who suffers from Irlen Syndrome, I can relate to the personal information Rhonda shares about her family's struggle to discover the source of her children's learning difficulties. As a professional providing services to others who suffer from Irlen Syndrome, I highly recommend that others read this book not only as a source of factual information, but as source of validation for those experiencing similar challenges.
