自然修复是:

"... [A] lively exploration of what modern research has to say about the myriad health benefits of the great outdoors...Ms. 威廉姆斯 resists the tendency of so much nature writing towards easy epiphanies, 采用这种语气, 而不是, 高兴地淘气的...Ms. 威廉姆斯 puzzles out the pros 和 cons, 结论, 总而言之。, that there’s a good case for connecting with nature to extend both the quantity 和 quality of life..." —《365滚球官网》

“迷人的...威廉姆斯, a contributing editor at Outside magazine, presents all of this with the zip of a trail runner covering a lot of ground sure-footedly. She’s got the pop-sci presentation down pat — breezy enough to draw in the lay reader, thorough enough to satisfy the expert. She gamely volunteers to be researchers’ human guinea pig, including wearing a portable EEG unit in the woods 和 looking like a “shriveled sea urchin.” —《365滚球官网》
