"If the world seems more chaotic to you, this superbly thoughtful book can help explain why, and provide some advice on surfing that new wildness. It will help you see your time through new, sharper eyes."
Bill McKibben, founder of 350.org and author of The End of Nature
"An admirably lucid meditation on the wild. Wapner shows that we subdue every last bit of wildness only at immense peril to ourselves and to all that we hold dear. His conclusion--that we must welcome unpredictability and a modicum of danger back into our personal lives--is bracing and wise."
David Abram, Director of the Alliance for Wild Ethics (AWE) and author of Becoming Animal
