Second Nature: A Gardener's Education

Second Nature is the story of one man's education in the garden. But this is much more than a book about gardening. Michael Pollan masterfully promotes the garden as the most appropriate site to rethink our relationship to nature and to begin to put it on a saner footing. One of the best reasons to garden today, Pollan believes, is to put yourself on intimate terms with one samall corner of the universe.
