Simple Life portrays an outdoor life with strong historical roots, one that holds promise for everyone. The inspiration for Simple Life by Roger Isberg, came from twenty-five years of experience working with traditional outdoor life (\"friluftsliv\") at Sjoviks Folk College in Sweden, where Roger was founder and mentor of the Simple Life - Leadership - Handcraft course, a two-year college program.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eSimple Life is a translation and revised edition of Isberg's book, Fard, which was published in Sweden in 1991 and reprinted three times. Simple Life shows us a way to bring about a meeting with nature and between people. Such a meeting can demonstrate how a modern culture may rediscover harmony with itself and with nature.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eRoger Isberg explains how experiences in nature can change our daily life. Meeting nature on it's own terms, we gain experiential knowledge of nature and people that can lead us toward a deep ecological view and lifestyle. The book is divided into three sections, which cover the concept of experiential knowledge, characteristics of nature and people, and people meeting nature. It also includes a history of the friluftsliv tradition in Scandinavia as well as of outdoor life in North America.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eFurther information about courses in simple life can be obtained by contacting Roger Isberg at Brookside School of Simple Life, PO Box 128, Jackson, NH, 03846, or \u003ca\u003er.isberg@verizon.net\u003c\/a\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"World of Books ","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53504118128913,"sku":null,"price":0.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/9781412064156_c263a58c-35d8-4fbb-99c3-778ecb1ced4c.jpg?v=1778079400","url":"https:\/\/www.worldofbooks.com\/products\/books-simple-life-friluftsliv-by-roger-isberg","provider":"World of Books ","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
