Summary

Scott Russell Sanders argues that people need to find a sense of "at-homeness" in the natural world because moments of interaction with the nonhuman world - whether one is transfixed by the sight of a great blue heron or enchanted by the voice of a creek - restore sanity and courage in the face of life's trials.
