- Love it or loathe it, this is an important book Review by Patrick Whitefield, author of the Earth Care Manual, review in Permaculture magazine
-
Love it or loathe it, this is an important book. The one assumption that we rarely hear challenged is that cutting CO2 emissions means economic hardship. This book challenges that assumption. I approached this book with scepticism, but was won over by its brilliance of technical detail and in the end its honesty. The final words of the book are: 'Productive use of the gifts we borrow from the earth...can gain us more time to search. But it...can never substitute for the renewal of our polity, our ethical principles and our spirituality.' (Posted on 08/07/2010)Review
