Open Spaces
Voices from the Northwest
The Pacific Northwest is known for its innovative solutions. Whether the challenge is integration with the natural world, the relationship of science and policy, learning to use what we know, or simply enjoying a balanced and fulfilling life, these writers, leaders in their respective disciplines, provide the background necessary to understand the issues and move forward. This lasting collection from the magazine is an invaluable resource for students, educators, and practitioners working in various fields as well as decision makers in government, business, and other sectors looking for real-world answers to ongoing conflicts.
Collectively, the writers in this volume apply their expertise and talent to provide an intelligent and informed context through which to see public issues and make sense of the changes that continue to shape the region and our world. Individually, they touch on our deepest sense of human experience and continuity and reflect the spirit of the Northwest. Open Spaces enlightens, challenges, and inspires.

"The Open Spaces anthology is essential reading for anyone moving to Cascadia and to the rest of the world."—Brett Campbell, Willamette Week, June 22 2011
"The metaphysics of Northwest identity, grounded in a confluence of storytelling and analysis, is a ceaseless quest, and Open Spaces, the magazine and now the book, does it better than most. The anthology's lineup of 30 writers [is] impressive for its range, readability, and depth of knowledge."—Capitol Hill Times
