First Edition, First Printing. Signed by the author on the title page.
Moral philosopher Kathleen Dean Moore believes we live in a world of islands – both literal and figurative – mapped out by generations of Western philosophers whose mission was, it seems, to steadfastly remove humans from nature. The result is a loneliness that isolates us from ourselves, our families, and our natural world. Through these personal essays about family vacations, wilderness adventures, and backyard gardening, Moore maps out a different philosophy about what it means to connect, to love, and to live in a culture where islands are truly linked beneath the surface.
