Now Exploring "Out of the Woods"

In this introspective collection of essays, Julia Corbett examines nature in our lives with all of its ironies and contradictions by integrating personal narratives with science and research.  Each essay delves into an overlooked aspect of our relationship with nature — insects, garbage, backyards, noise, open doors, animals, and language — and how we cover our tracks.

Out of the Woods leads to insights into the products, practices, and phrases we take for granted in our everyday encounters with nature and encourages us all to consider how we might re-value or re-imagine our relationships with nature in our everyday lives.
