"I've seen many books on this subject, but none so well documented and honest."―Whole Earth

Their book received tremendous praise around the world and was seen as a significant move toward green architecture. Nearly twenty years later, in the early 1990s, the Vales decided to turn their groundbreaking ideas into reality."synopsis" may belong to another edition of this title.
