Child advocacy expert Richard Louv links the lack of nature in the lives of today's wired generation-he calls it nature-deficit-to some of the most disturbing childhood trends: the rises in obesity, attention disorders, and depression. In this book hebrings together a new and growing body of research indicating that direct exposure to nature is essential for healthy childhood development and for the physical and emotional health of children and adults. More than just raising an alarm, Louv offerspractical solutions and simple ways to heal the broken bond-and they are right in our own backyard
