Remotely Controlled

Are you damaging yourself and your children?

By the time you are seventy-five, you will almost certainly have spent more than twelve years of your life staring at the television. In many families, television has a greater hold over the children than their parents do. Using up-to-the-minute scientific evidence, psychologist and broadcaster Dr Aric Sigman exposes how watching too much television: slows the body's metabolic rate; stunts the development of young brains; may permanently hinder children's educational progress; increases the likelihood of children developing ADHD; is a leading cause of half of all violence-related crime; lowers adult libido; is a major cause of depression

This book is an extraordinary revelation.
