This One Wild and Precious Life

Book • 2020
In this book, Sarah Wilson embarks on a three-year soul's journey, hiking around the world to find a path through the complexities of climate change, the pandemic, racial inequalities, and our disconnection from what truly matters.

Drawing on science, literature, philosophy, and the wisdom of leading experts, Wilson provides a blueprint for living a wilder, more connected life.

She advocates for 'wild practices' such as embracing discomfort, breaking the cycle of mindless consumption, and reconnecting with nature and others.

The book is a call to action, encouraging readers to step outside the zeitgeist and find a more joyful and sustainable existence.
