THE NATURAL EXPLORER
Book ID/图书代码: 04300012B51677
English Summary/英文概要: The most rewarding travel experiences do not depend on our destination or the length of our journey, but on our levels of awareness. A short walk can compare with an epic journey, when we take the time to focus on the things that dramatically enrich each journey. Combining the work of the some of the most insightful travellers of the past two thousand years with his own experience, Tristan Gooley, author of THE NATURAL NAVIGATOR demonstrates how it is possible to connect profoundly with the lands we travel through. Exploration is no longer about hardship or long distances, it is about celebrating the sense of connection and discovery that is possible in all our travels.
Chinese Summary/中文概要: 旅程經驗的最大回報並不取決於我們的目的地或我們的旅程的長度,而是我們意識的層面上。當我們花太多時間去專注于每段戲劇性一樣的旅程事務中時,一次簡短的步行可以堪比一場史詩般的旅程。結合過去兩千年來,最富洞察力的旅行者一些記錄和自己的經驗,Tristan Gooley展示了,這些所累積的經驗是如何深刻的與我們所穿越的大陸所息息相關的。
探索之旅不再是相關的困難或是遙不可及了,它是關於我們可能發現自己所有旅程中與自然環境關係的一種展現。(Sandy)
Awards/获奖情况:Wanderlust Magazine:
“Gooley takes you on a journey through the intricate, detailed and often-missed sides of a walk in the wild”Prospect Magazine"...The Natural Explorer, take us on a multi-sensory, literary journey intent on heightening awareness of our surroundings. An ambitious combination of Gooley’s own insights and those of countless other writers, explorer and philosophers, this is serious armchair adventuring. Who says non-fiction can be escapist too."
Countryfile Magazine:"...Gooley returns with a highly readable and engaging work devoted to the temporarily mislaid art of exploration...it’s an inspiring account but also a turning point - perhaps a classic in years to come - because its simple aim is to help you recognise what your senses are telling you. It’s also an object lesson in how to frame a call to action, because this is a book you can’t put down until you absolutely have to get out and start seeing the world as you should. And that’s when the adventure really begins..."
