I was not sure what to expect from this book, but I am so glad I decided to read it. The book is divided into four parts. Each part addresses a specific aspect of dealing with nature.

Part 3: Finding the Balance Between Urban Living and Nature

Part 4: Infusing Your Everyday Urban Life with Nature

 

The author does a wonderful job explaining how anyone can connect with nature no matter where they live. He talks about having to travel far just to hear nature with no man-made sounds.

As a bonus, he gives additional information on a website and provides the password in the book. I recommend this book to anyone that wants to connect better with nature any way they can.
