Winner of the NIB Waverley Award for Literature.
Forget about wilderness, Tim Low says, nature lives in our cities and gardens, exploiting everything we do. Many endangered species now live in industrial zones and cities. In our forests, native creatures have become pests. Fifteen years on, The New Nature continues to challenge the way we view the interactions between human beings and nature, and pushes us to review our relationship with Australia's wilderness.

The New Nature Tim Low Reviews
This is a terrific book. It takes on many sacred cows in the conservation movement including the myth of "wilderness", the dreadfully sloppy use of the the word "nature" and the often misguided attempts of well-meaning conservationists. It's largely based on Australian examples, but there would be lessons here for al continents. We can't wind back the clock if we are to move to some sort of balance with other life forms we have to come to grips with the fact that they don't see the world through our mental prisms. For example, sewage treatment farms are very rich environments for birds; rubbish tips full of old corrugated iron and junk are havens for reptiles and controlled grazing by sheep and cattle can actually preserve more biodiversity than "native" kangaroos!
