This book takes us into the wild - deep into dark forests, to the top of mountains and into the heart of deserts. It addresses our deep yearnings to be awed by landscapes that remain beyond our reach and examines what nature gets up to in the absence of humans. In 10 chapters, each loosely structured around a visit to some of the world's wildest landscapes, the book asks provocative questions about the nature of wilderness and how wild places might best be appreciated or preserved.
