商品簡介
Gardening is a common and well-loved hobby enjoyed by millions in the UK alone, but what is it about this familiar activity that makes it so attractive? Why do gardeners often say that they lose track of time in the garden? What is guerrilla gardening? And what does your garden say about you?
All of these questions and more are explored in this unique introduction to the psychological issues involved with gardening. This book delves into the huge benefits that gardening can have on our health and emotional well-being, and how this could impact on the public health of the country. Using anecdotes from both professional and amateur gardeners, this book also explores what our gardens can say about our personalities, how we can link gardening to mindfulness and restoration, and what factors might motivate a person to take up gardening.
The Psychology of Gardening provides a fascinating look at human behaviour in relation to gardening, which will appeal to anyone who loves to garden and will also help explain the attraction to the nongardener in our lives.
