This is an inspired synthesis of scientific detail and creative perception offers new insights into the relationship between body and earth. 'Body is our first environment', writes Andrea Olsen. 'It is the medium through which we know the earth'. In a remarkable integration of environmental science, biology, meditation, and creative expression, Olsen, a dancer who teaches in the environmental studies program at Middlebury College, offers a guide to a holistic understanding of person and place. Part workbook, part exploration, "Body and Earth" considers the question of how we can best, most responsibly inhabit both our bodies and our planet. |
