This book is not about aspirational living; it's about practical living. It's about looking at the world around you and finding where it's at fault, rather than blaming yourself. It's about dropping the comfortable prisons we create for ourselves to find the real freedom and happiness we deserve.

We live in a world that is overfed but malnourished, sunlight deficient, overly competitive, sedentary, and sleep deprived. Our blood pressure and stress levels are at record highs, our mental health at record lows. Our eyes are strained from looking at screens all the time, and our backs are killing us. We buy far too much of what we don't need, and we aren't even pooing in the right position!

Yet step outside, maybe walk a few minutes down the road, and you will inevitably see plants bursting with nourishment, hear calming birdsong, breath in fresh air, move your stiff body. Perhaps we have the answer to all our modern malaises right here, outside our own homes. Perhaps it is time for a New Wild Order.

Join forager, author, dad, and everyday fella Andy Hamilton, as he answers his own call to the wild, and discovers how it might just save his life - and yours.

'I loved reading New Wild Order. As a forager and nature lover there's always more to learn, and Andy gave me new insights to enrich my life with. It gives a valuable perspective on where we're at as a culture and knits themes together that you might not expect. Thank you Andy for this brilliant addition to writing about the wild.' -Rachel Lambert, award-winning author and forager

'New Wild Order is a breath of fresh air. This book will shake you out of your doldrums and help you find your peace of mind again with a simple but powerful solution- getting outside. As a mother to a young son, this book is pivotal in parenting. It's a reminder for all of us to set the screens down and just go outside. It's as simple and as powerful as that. New Wild Order serves as my daily call to get past the desk and out into this big, beautiful world. I never regret it.' -Dr. Lauren Cook, Licensed Clinical Psychologist and author of Generation Anxiety

'This is an interesting read which reflects on modern life and the detachment from mother nature. Andy looks at the practical methods to address these issues and encourages time out with Mother nature to restore the balance.' -Christine Walkden, British television presenter and gardener
