Book Reviews of Sustainable Design: Ecology, Architecture, and Planning

Book Review: A must read for architects, planners and students of sustainable design

A powerful call for an ecological approach to sustainable design that guides us through the philosophic foundation to sustainable design - not "green wash". The discussion on the need for large scale actions and particularly watershed protection is quite powerful.
