Dr. Alice Tarbuck praises it as a \"moment of ground-breaking importance for how we think about nature, access, and wellbeing in late capitalism.\" Impeccably researched, it calls us all to find a place within the simplicity and complexity of nature. Lara Maiklem, bestselling author of 'Mudlarking,' describes it as a \"call to us all to find a place within the simplicity and complexity of nature.\"\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eEverybody is talking about the healing properties of nature. Hospitals are being retrofitted with gardens, and forests are being reimagined as wellbeing centers. On the Shetland Islands, it is possible to walk into a doctor's 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?\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eDrawing 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.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eEverybody Needs Beauty engages seriously with the connection between nature and health, while scrutinizing 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.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 232g\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDimension\u003c\/strong\u003e: 128 x 198 x 25 (mm)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eISBN-13\u003c\/strong\u003e: 9781526621023\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Samantha Walton","offers":[{"title":"Paperback \/ softback","offer_id":44094365270266,"sku":"9781526621023","price":7.31,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0522\/4297\/2845\/products\/1656074369356_book.jpg?v=1656163641","url":"https:\/\/shulphink.com\/products\/everybody-needs-beauty-in-search-of-the-nature-cure-9781526621023","provider":"Shulph Ink","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
