Book Review - The Nature of Business

Just had my first book review published... written with Janice McDougall  and Norbert Hoeller... not sure why my name is first... unless its by order of first name...and that *NEVER* happens! 
 

The review was written for an amazing magazine about Bioinspired Design - Zygote Quarterly... photos are stunning... words aren't bad either*.
 

The review is of the visionary / call to arms "The Nature of Business: Redesigning for Resilience" by Giles Hutchins.  The review can be found here.   

Giles also wrote some nice summaries of the ideas in the book for the Network for Business Sustainability earlier this year...

Aside:The book publisher is involved in the first UK Transition Town Totnes... where many of the ideas from the book are being put into practice.  There is even a local Totnes Pound - to keep economic transactions local...
