Claudia Praxmayer und ihr Mann kaufen einen alten Hof im Chiemgau, um auf dem riesigen Grundstück Lebensräume zu schaffen, in denen bedrohte Arten Zuflucht finden. Die Biologin legt Totholzhecken und Terrassenbeete an, lässt Wildblumenwiesen wachsen und Tümpel volllaufen – und überall sprießt das Leben! Igel, Vögel und Fledermäuse ziehen ein, Wildbienen und andere Insekten finden reichlich Nahrung, sogar die friedliche Koexistenz im Gemüsebeet ist (mit kleinen Kompromissen) möglich. Dieses Buch zeigt, wie Mensch und Natur miteinander das größte Gartenglück erreichen.

Gene Logsdon's The Man Who Created Paradise is a message of hope at a time when the very concept of earth stewardship is under attack. The fable, inspired by a true story, tells how Wally Spero looked at one of the bleakest places in America -- a raw and barren strip-mined landscape -- and saw in it his escape from the drudgery of his factory job. He bought an old bulldozer and used the machine to carve patiently, acre by acre, a beautiful little farm out of a seemingly worthless wasteland.
