Abstract

Nature is more than just a collection of physical and biological resources. Is is also an image in our minds and in our hearts. This image includes all the thoughts, feelings, and values that nature evokes--a place of refuge from the demands of society, of encounter with natural forces, and of personal and spiritual transformation.
