This collection has brought together essays, poems and visual art by 42 writers and artists with the aim of showing that our relationship with the land and with the natural world is a vital part of our imaginative, cultural and social life. Authors such as John Fowles, Fay Weldon and Richard Mabey adopt perspectives as diverse as the proliferation of agribusiness, the nuclear arms question, personal relationships with places and "green" politics.
