The Great Indoors - the surprising science of how buildings shape our behaviour, health and happiness
The benefits of nature are well documented. Regular forays into the natural world have been shown to have pronounced, positive effects on our physical and mental health, but most of us spend the majority of our lives shuttling between homes and offices, schools and hospitals. This book explores the effects of the environments we've built for ourselves and is an argument for thoughtful interventions and a celebration of the adaptive genius of human beings.
