Synopsis:

Biomimicry is a revolutionary new science that analyzes nature's best ideas spider silk and eyes, seashells and brain cells, photosynthesis and DNA and adapts them for human use. Science writer Janine Benyus takes us into the lab and out in the field with the maverick researchers who are discovering nature's ingenious solutions to the problem of human survival.


Review:

"The ecological salvation Benyus sees with such confidence may still be far in the future, but her vision is provocative, and could well provide one viable answer to the wake-up call that Rachel Carson sounded a generation ago in "Silent Spring."

David Perlman, San Francisco Chronicle Book Review, 11/30/1997
