Neuware - Timely and provocative reflections on the future of the wild in an increasingly human worldThe Heart of the Wild brings together some of today's leading scientists, humanists, and nature writers to offer a thought-provoking meditation on the urgency of learning about and experiencing our wild places in an age of rapidly expanding human impacts.These engaging essays present nuanced and often surprising perspectives on the meaning and value of "wildness" amid the realities of the Anthropocene. They consider the trends and forcesfrom the cultural and conceptual to the ecological and technologicalthat are transforming our relationship with the natural world and sometimes seem only to be pulling us farther away from wild places and species with each passing day. The contributors make impassioned defenses of naturalism, natural history, and nature education in helping us to rediscover a love for the wild at a time when our connections with it have frayed or been lost altogether.Charting a new path forward in an era of ecological uncertainty, The Heart of the Wild reframes our understanding of nature and our responsibility to learn from and sustain it as the human footprint sinks ever deeper into the landscapes around us.With contributions by Bill Adams, Joel Berger, Susan Clayton, Eileen Crist, Martha L.

Schell, Richard Shine, and Kyle Whyte.…
