Biologic: Designing With Nature to Protect the Environment

Summary: To Protect the Environment, First Understand Nature
Review: When I wrote Biologic in the early 90s, it was after I had an epiphany about Human/Nature.

I did extensive research on the way nature works, which was built upon my own years of hands-on experience in the garden.

I wrote a book that explains new ways of thinking: preventively, holistically, bio-logically, then designing our products, our agriculture, transportation, architecture, and so on WITH NATURE IN MIND.

The book has been an inspiration to creative thinkers like Amory Lovins, Paul Hawken, Hazel Henderson, and many others, and is just as relevant in its accessible, non-academic, core thinking as it was when I wrote it.

College professors have told me their students will read this concept book far more readily than a typical textbook, and that Biologic tends to generate lots of creative discussion.

Have a look-- whether you're a businessperson,an educator, a consumer, or a designer, you'll find food for thought here. As Edward Abbey phrased it, "We must learn to think not only logically, but biologically..."
