    A hopeful yet practical collection of essays exploring the many opportunities and benefits of rewilding and how to get involved today. Highly illustrated with nature photography tracing landscape change over thousands of years. Rewilding is the thoughtful practise of letting natural ecological processes run their course to change a habitat. Both nature and people are enriched by the process. There are many ways of being engaged in rewilding, and a whole range of people helping to achieve it. Essays in Rewilding are written by professionals in in the fields of wildlife conservation, recreation, education, agriculture, and forestry, as well as by people actively involved in successful rewilding. Each one contributes to our understanding of what ‘rewilding’ really means, and provides a practical guide for more communities to strive for more connected, satisfying and sustainable lives.
