Naked Hiking by Richard Foley

Naked hiking is an exciting and healthy activity which can be enjoyed by everybody, male or female, of any age, almost anywhere. Perhaps you've wondered whether you could to it too, and if so how, or where might you begin? Or maybe you are an experienced naked hiker already, and feel like stretching your wings a little further by reading about other people's naked adventures in the great outdoors. Many people may be surprised to discover that hiking naked in public spaces is fully legal and actively supported in many countries all around the world. It is also an activity which is practiced by a large number of people in many different locations, from gently meandering around sunny lakesides, to easy rambling across rolling countryside, to the very tops of rocky alpine peaks. This book brings together some of the best writers on the subject, experts in their field, to share their intimate knowledge of naked hiking with you. Included are naked hiking reports, fully illustrated with pictures, from Nicole Wunram (author of Nacktwandern), Stephen Gough (the Naked Rambler), Olle Strand (author of Sol, h lsa, gl dje), Richard Foley (author of Active Nudists), Stuart Pitsiligo (author of Naturist, Red in Tooth and Claw), and many others. Including over 80 full colour photographs

Richard Foley was born in London and now lives near Munich, Germany, as an itinerant Perl programmer (since 1996). When he might be spending valuable time with his family, reading or playing chess, strolling or skiing in the surrounding mountains, he wastes the majority of his time programming in Perl and Oracle. He has a background in technical illustration and has developed applications in the Aerospace, Internet, and Banking industries using Perl and Oracle on UNIX. From 1997 until 2001, he was in charge of maintaining the perlbug database and contributed modifications to the Perl debugger, as well as writing the perl debugger tutorial (perldebtut). He is the author of several CPAN modules, notably Oracle:: Debug, a Perl debugger-inspired interface to the server-side Oracle PL/SQL engine.

He is a member of the YAPC:: Europe committee, which is responsible for arranging Perl conferences in Europe. He co-organized YAPC:: Europe::2002 in Munich. Broad Peak in the Karakorum Himalaya reached a height of 24,000 feet, while the Yorkshire Dales in northern England reached a depth of 300 feet. Yeah, and when his daughters don't pluck them out first, his grey hairs are fading as well!
