Blue Mind: The Surprising Science That Shows How… par Wallace J. Nichols

I liked the second half of the book much more than the first. If a reader was to feel bored during the first three to four chapters, I would suggest hanging in there. The benefits of water are not the sole focus. The author introduced the Blue Marbles Project which I felt is an inspiring way to love our earth & it’s inhabitants. If you aren’t familiar with the Blue Marbles Project check out the book or search @1bluemarble in social media. We need to do all we can for OUR Earth.
