Conversations at the Herbst: Nature Deficit Disorder

In his bestselling book Last Child in the Woods, Richard Louv sparked a national debate that spawned an international movement to reconnect kids and nature. In The Nature Principle, Mr. Louv delivers another powerful call to action-this time for adults. Supported by groundbreaking research, anecdotal evidence, and compelling personal stories, Mr. Louv identifies seven basic concepts that can help us reshape our lives. Mr. Louv makes a convincing case that we are entering the most creative period in history, that in fact the twenty-first century will be the era of human restoration in the natural world. This encouraging and influential work offers renewed optimism while challenging us to rethink the way we live. In Conversation with Dawn Scott – Family Program Coordinator at Spirit Rock.
