LOSING EDEN (HB)

Today, many of us live largely indoor lives. Yet nature remains deeply ingrained in our language, culture and consciousness. As we become increasingly disconnected from the natural world, are we losing part of ourselves? Travelling from forest schools in East London, to the Svalbard Global Seed Vault, via Poland's primeval woodlands, Californian laboratories and eco-therapists' couches, this book takes us to the cutting edge of human biology, neuroscience and psychology, and discovers new ways of understanding our increasingly dysfunctional relationship with the Earth.
