Reviews
This engaging collection is an indispensable and delightful introduction to a topic as relevant as ever. Understanding how "wild" has been conceptualized will help us understand the contemporary human condition better, especially its deep entanglements with the more-than-human world. * Sanna Lehtinen, Research Fellow, School of Arts, Design and Architecture, Aalto University, Finland *
