Tim Low's award-winning book about the way we interact with nature in our human spaces continues to challenge our perceptions of the environment and our interaction with it.

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.

Tim Low writes in a very natural and easy to understand style to highlight how well meaning human behaviour impacts on nature and results in benefits to some areas and detriments in others. A must read for anyone concerned with our natural world.
