Mid-Levels West
Beneath Victoria Peak
Above the urban fringe
Where the mountain meets humans

Artists, novelists, ecologists, historians, architects and urbanists, gather to reveal their personal insights and experiences of this space between city and mountain.  A collection of essays, short stories, art, photography, postcards and maps, The Pulse of Nature is the ultimate guide for wandering or roaming around Mid-Levels West. Let us meander then, into a Hong Kong story you may never have known

until now.
 

太平山下、城市邊上，大山與人相會的西邊一隅。

本書既是一本實驗性的西半山指南，亦是一次難得的機會去發問：怎樣才是全然走進一處「環境」中，從多樣無窮的角度感知它？一眾學者、藝術家與寫作人以獨特角度呈現其感知的西半山，內容包納人文歷史、社會建構、人物關係、建築、自然史、動植物學等；並行而讀，牽引出各種元素環環相扣，成就環境的生態思考。本書除收錄散文、短篇小說、畫作、攝影與大樹寄來的短箋，更附有漫行地圖，讓你一同實踐環境想像力，走進西半山，感知西半山。
