About this listen

 A blueprint for a more balanced, sustainable world by King Charles III. This compassionate and insightful book shines a light on our new monarch’s deep interest in the world around us.

Long before the phrase climate change was a universal catchphrase, our new monarch, King Charles III was studying the impact of industrialization on the environment. In this fascinating cross-discipline work, he calls upon his years of research and explores the way in which mankind must work to restore the delicate balance with nature that we've lost in the centuries since the industrial revolution began.

In 'Harmony', His Majesty King Charles III discusses how areas as diverse as architecture, farming and medicine have each abandoned the classical balances with nature that existed in pre-industrial times. More than simply another treatise on global warming, 'Harmony' tells a story that presents a clear, thoughtful look at how our disassociation from nature has helped to in the greatest environmental crisis in the history of mankind.

This is a wonderful book mainly about the environment, history and the future. It is very clearly and logically laid out (not an easy task with so much information). I consider myself fairly well-informed on the environment etc., but certainly learned a lot. It) is also quite inspirational - I realy think if I had read this while at school I might have taken up science (but only for the right reasons - i.e. to help protect nature..). Of course, the fact it is read by Prince Charles is a great bonus - he has a very pleasant voice and it is a pleasure to hear someone with the perfect pronunciation!!!

A wonderful book!

My love and respect for the man sprouted from what was a decades long scepticism and sometimes mockery.

I was wrong. Listening to the voice of King Charles III was a surreal experience. He has a wonderful voice and the commitment and love he has for this subject is never questioned.

Have a listen. Read it. Look up the names and the eras he speaks of and you will no more than most Phd grads. The journey will be long and this is a good thing.

There should be a children’s version of this book written by the King and crucially, with references with which they can relate.

Magnificent erudition and abundant soul

This book came as a pleasant surprise, It is well researched with real life example of how we as individuals, community's and country's can help the planet and all that live upon her. HRH presents fascinating views and historical facts and is well worth reading.

Fascinating

By the end of the book, I had a far greater knowledge and understanding of the natural systems that underpin the world we live in, and their importance, especially now. I hope as many people as possible will be exposed to the knowledge in this book, as I feel it contains so many hugely important lessons, that if continue to be neglected, will have dire consequences.

A wonderful surprise

Everyone knows Charles is passionate about the environment but I hadn't realised just how radical he is. Really brilliant book and surprisingly well performed. He's very knowledgeable and passionate about many important themes.

brilliant book
