About the book
Wired for the Wild
For nearly all of human history, we lived as hunter-gatherers, active, communal, and deeply connected to the land. Then came agriculture, hierarchy, industry, and the digital age. In just a blink of evolutionary time, we built a world that overwhelms the nervous system, isolates the individual, and erodes the foundations of health and belonging.
In Wired for the Wild, Harvard-trained physician and epidemiologist [Author Name] traces humanity’s journey from the fires of prehistory to the screens of modernity, exposing the biological mismatch at the root of today’s epidemics of anxiety, depression, metabolic disease, and ecological collapse.
But this is not just a story of disconnection, it’s a call to reconnection. Combining clinical insight, evolutionary science, and ancient wisdom, Wired for the Wild offers evidence-based strategies for “rewilding” the self, rebuilding authentic community, and redesigning systems that sustain life.
Perfect for readers of Sapiens, Braiding Sweetgrass, Tribe, and Lost Connections, this book illuminates one profound truth:
We cannot heal ourselves without healing our relationship to the world that made us.
