“Ian Marcus Corbin’s book is a brilliantly eloquent plea, at once rigorously argued and ambitiously visionary, for the lost habits of attention, belonging, gratitude, and humility. Corbin calls these various habits ‘world-tending,’ and he makes a vivid case that if we do not begin this task now, there may be no meaningful world left to tend. A passionate and necessary book.”
