As a means of exploring this wager, The unsettling outdoors spends time with a series of groups who may be subject to a process of environmental estrangement that is often barely perceptible but which could easily become more widespread. By talking with those who have ended up running on indoor treadmills, those confronted by the lack of showers at summer music festivals, those who seldom consider the spaces outside their city offices, and those faced with the intimidating prospect of a living domestic garden, this book reveals the importance of this process and provides a wealth of suggestions about the effective study of everyday life."--Provided by publisher.RGS-IBG book series.Human ecologySocial aspectsHuman ecologyHistoryHuman ecologySocial aspects.Human ecologyHistory.304.2Hitchings Russell1638969MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQDLCBOOK9910831098803321The unsettling outdoors3981677UNINA
