Our universe is characterized by constant motion. From electrons to galaxies, all things are on the move. This resonates within the human condition; we are born to move. From the earliest hunters, sailors, and horse-riders to the modern world of trains, bicycles, and cars, movement is everywhere in human life. Our history as nomads compares starkly to our increasingly sedentary life today. This fundamental disruption of the human as a moving being led to the invention of the wheel, new religious cultures, and even the rational mind. This book considers the full depth of the link between humanity and motion, examining how it manifests in us and how we embody it. Broad and multidisciplinary, it blends history, geography, psychology, philosophy, architecture, anthropology, and spirituality.
