Synopsis

We spend half our lives in it, yet how well do we truly know the dark? When the World Goes Dark is not a history of darkness, but a true history of Night, one of the most powerful and overlooked forces in the human story. Journey from the birth of the day-night cycle to the modern threat of light pollution, discovering how the rhythms of darkness shaped the evolution of life, ignited the human imagination around primordial fires, and guided the course of civilization through the stars.

This book masterfully weaves together astronomy, biology, history, and psychology to reveal that night is not merely an empty void, but a vibrant, essential character in the epic of our world. It is a forgotten dimension that has made us who we are, and its future is now in our hands.
