Paperback. Zustand: Very Good. 'Beautifully written, intimate and intellectually fascinating' Nathan Filer This book represents, genuinely, a moment of ground-breaking importance for how we think about nature, access and wellbeing in late capitalism Dr Alice Tarbuck Impeccably researched . . . A call to us all to find a place within the simplicity and complexity of nature Lara Maiklem, bestselling author of Mudlarking Everybody is talking about the healing properties of nature. Hospitals are being retrofitted with gardens, and forests reimagined as wellbeing centres. On the Shetland Islands, it is possible to walk into a doctors surgery with anxiety or depression, and walk out with a prescription for nature. Where has this come from, and what does going to nature mean? Where is it at the end of a garden, beyond the tarmac fringes of a city, at the summit of a mountain? Drawing on history, science, literature and art, Samantha Walton shows that the nature cure has deep roots but, as we face an unprecedented crisis of mental health, social injustice and environmental devastation, the search for it is more urgent now than ever. Everybody Needs Beauty engages seriously with the connection between nature and health, while scrutinising the harmful trends of a wellness industry that seeks to exploit our relationship with the natural world. In doing so, this book explores how the nature cure might lead us towards a more just and radical way of life: a real means of recovery, for people, society and nature. The book has been read, but is in excellent condition. Pages are intact and not marred by notes or highlighting. The spine remains undamaged. Artikel-Nr. GOR012511379
