Critics Review

‘Bradbury offers a timely reminder of why it is vitally important that we fall back in love with our cities, as habitats and hubs for the regenerative future we must create, for if we don’t create that in cities, we won’t create it at all.’

– Tony Juniper CBE

Dwellbeing comes to us at the most critical of times. Bradbury gracefully articulates the very desperate need for “conscious living” vs the seemingly unconscious current human condition. Bradbury’s wisdom, research and deep emotional intelligence help us realize what is at stake. Her plea for us to use our voices in shaping our urban future is an alarming and vital call to action. An essential read before it’s too late.’

– Deborah Calmeyer

‘Reminds us of the humanity that underpins our daily lives as urbanites.’

– Leo Johnson
