Stories are strange beasts, full of unexpected turns, and like all art forms they should not be safe. So I approached this book with a deal of nervousness. I was pleasantly surprised. The book contains 21 chapters from different authors, exploring different ways in which stories can be used to useful ends for the environment. The chapters vary widely - from Martin Shaw's offering of more spiritual rites of passage and wilderness, through David Metcalfe's exploration of how a story circle can make a difference, to Chris Holland's glorious blobster-building workshops, there is a great deal to learn here from the hands-on experience of the writers. Even more generously, all contribute stories which can be used and developed by the reader, making this a very practical contribution to the subject....a real treasury. - Lisa Schneidau -<br>
