The images are of the forests, fields, wetlands and wildlife along the Missouri River in Central Missouri's Boone County. Through images and words, the author emphasizes that nature is not something that lies \"out there, beyond the pale.\" It lies close to us, not only spatially but also in other ways. If we choose, we can become intimate with nature in our backyards and nearby parks, as well as in distant wildernesses. But wherever we find it, it has already found us. Our connections to nature are embedded in our evolutionary history and dwell within the fabric of our being. By developing an awareness of this, the author stresses, we can grow individually and societally toward a greater appreciation and understanding of nature's significance to our well being.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Paul Sinrud Johnson\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Createspace Independent Publishing Platform\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 09\/28\/2012\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 112\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.47lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.50h x 8.50w x 0.29d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781479309580\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eAbout the Author\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003ePaul Sinrud Johnson is a photographer, writer and retired U.S. Forest Service scientist.
