Florence Williams, keen observer, deft writer, creates a fascinating mosaic here. What are the costs--to us!--of humanity's increasing disconnection from nature? What are the likely benefits--to us!--of retaining that threatened connection'...Large., I'm no tree hugger, but The Nature Fix made me want to run outside and embrace the nearest oak. Not for the tree's sake but mine. Florence Williams makes a compelling, and elegant, case that nature is not only beautiful but also good for us. If Thoreau were steeped in modern neuroscience and possessed an endearingly self-deprecating sense of humor, the result would be the book you hold in your hands., [A] livelyexploration of what modern research has to say about the myriad health benefitsof the great outdoors. . . Ms. Williams resists the tendency of so much naturewriting towards easy epiphanies, adopting a tone that is, instead, pleasinglypuckish. . . [She] puzzles out the pros and cons, concluding, on balance, thatthere's a good case for connecting with nature to extend both the quantity andquality of life. . ., [Williams] makes a compelling argument for time outdoors. She takes a refreshing approach, including 'forest bathing' (the Japanese custom of a sensory walk in the woods); ecotherapy in Scotland; and how nature can produce the same effects as mind-altering drugs. Thought-provoking and excellent., A veteran journalist, Williams flexes her conditioned reporting muscles. . . . Her fast-paced book takes readers across three continents as she trails all kinds of experts, from phycologists to foresters., Florence Williams, keen observer, deft writer, creates a fascinating mosaic here. What are the costs--to us!--of humanity's increasing disconnection from nature? What are the likely benefits--to us!--of retaining that threatened connection'... Large., Chock-full of insights about the health benefits of spending time in nature. (It turns out that lying on the beach is good for you.), [Williams] presents the benefits of spending time outdoors . . . entertainingly but with enough scientific detail to satisfy the expert., A veteran journalist, Williams flexes her conditioned reporting muscles.... Her fast-paced book takes readers across three continents as she trails all kinds of experts, from phycologists to foresters., The Nature Fix is a beautifully written, thoroughly enjoyable exposition of a major principle of human life now supported by evidence in biology, psychology, and medicine., [Williams] presents the benefits of spending time outdoors... entertainingly but with enough scientific detail to satisfy the expert., [A] scientific tour de Mother Earth.... The Nature Fix offers a cross-continental rumination on nature's feel-good effects in a world that's increasingly concrete-centric., [A] scientific tour de Mother Earth...The Nature Fix offers a cross-continental rumination on nature's feel-good effects in a world that's increasingly concrete-centric., The Nature Fix offers a cross-continental rumination on nature's feel-good effects in a world that's increasingly concrete-centric., [The Nature Fix] has much to offer to anyone interested in human health, from city planners and health practitioners to educators, scientists... and anyone concerned with their own well-being., [A] scientific tour de Mother Earth. . . . The Nature Fix offers a cross-continental rumination on nature's feel-good effects in a world that's increasingly concrete-centric.
