The Nile on eBay FREE SHIPPING UK WIDE Everybody Needs Beauty by Samantha Walton ‘Beautifully written, intimate and intellectually fascinating’ Nathan Filer’This book represents, genuinely, a moment of ground-breaking importance for how we think about nature, access and wellbeing in late capitalism’ Dr Alice Tarbuck ‘Impeccably researched . . . A call to us all to find a place within the simplicity and complexity of nature’ Lara Maiklem, bestselling author of MudlarkingEverybody is talking about the healing properties of nature. Hospitals are being retrofitted with gardens, and forests reimagined as wellbeing centres. 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? Drawing 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.Everybody Needs Beauty engages seriously with the connection between nature and health, while scrutinising 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. FORMAT Paperback LANGUAGE English CONDITION Brand New Author Biography Samantha Walton is a Reader in Modern Literature at Bath Spa University, where the focus of her research is the link between nature and mental health. Previously, she was a Writing Fellow at the prestigious Rachel Carson Centre in Munich. She is also a poet and has appeared on the BBC, and at a number of festivals including Green Man and Wilderness to speak about her research. She lives in Bristol.@samlwalton Review Everybody Needs Beauty is a tender but rigorous corrective to the stories we are sold about nature, wellness and our planet. Walton’s prose is inviting, personal, but uncompromising: she examines who profits, and who loses, in our rush to outsource wellness to an unwell planet. Beautiful, provoking and genuinely revolutionary, Walton offers us a way forward – a call to action that opens up the radical potential that both we, and our world, house within us. A book that will change the way you see the world — Dr Alice Tarbuck, author of A SPELL IN THE WILD Beauty can seem in short supply these days. Samantha Walton punctures insipid nature cure myths and shows that not only do we all need beauty, but that it’s available to everyone.

Everybody Needs Beauty builds to the conclusion that it is not the experience of being in nature that makes us feel better, but that the soul is bolstered by a sense of the self’s complicity, presence and ability to provide care * Arts Desk * Promotional A culturally expansive, deeply researched and exquisitely written journey into the ‘nature cure’ phenomenon: its cultural legacy, the science behind it, and its uncertain future Review Quote Impeccably researched.
