The book had so much potential. It started very intriguingly, offering a lot of interesting thoughts to be developed later on.

However, it turned out that author reduced most of these ideas into simple lists of things, places and experiments they did, with little to no explanation or background.

Some chapters were, still, quite interesting, while others barely worth of noticing.

If you are a nature person, the book will help to solidify some of your ideas about nature, however, if you are not one, I don't think it'll help convert anyone to take a walk in the forest.
