This important new anthology integrates ecotherapy theory, practice and research to offer a range of approaches for establishing healing relations with the natural world. Ecotherapy's move beyond an outdated, mechanistic view of self as separate from world has implications and consequences as immediate as personal health and as wide as an Earth-honoring worldview. - Craig Chalquist, Professor and Department Chair of East-West Psychology, California Institute of Integral Studies, USA For the practitioner of the 21st Century, there is no greater calling than tending the relationship between personal health and ecological well-being. No longer may the two be separated. Organized seamlessly, Ecotherapy brings together conceptual and applied writings from experts in the field - a must-read 'toolkit' for students and mentors in all fields of study. - Stephen Aizenstat, Chancellor & Founding President, Pacifica Graduate Institute, USA
