About this book
Reviews
“Written in an accessible and engaging style, Life Indoors does a fabulous job of bringing relational ideas about bodies, health and wellbeing into conversation with indoor ecologies. A thoughtful historical trajectory builds a strong foundation for the de-construction of the home as a ‘modern techno-capsule’, and to an exploration of the way human life is entwined with microbial ecosystems. This excellent book is full of fascinating insights and has much that will be of interest to a wide audience.” (Dr Benjamin Cooke, Senior Lecturer, Sustainability and Urban Planning Discipline & Centre for Urban Research, RMIT University)
