There is a lot to say about the magic of nature, especially in us. So, what happens when we lose the most special place in the natural world? This month’s cover story looked at the disappearing tides of California for answers. After a long winter, you will find works about gardening wonders, as well as illustrations of the life of cows.
It’s also a time to do more indoor reflections, as we look at how to think about personal risks in a world of risk, what it means to quit the government job now, and even the attraction of astrology. Plus, we answered all kinds of questions: Why do we smell like food? What religious divides help explain the politics in America today?
