Who should read:

Our favorite ideas from the book:
-
The concept of "a new economy" that requires less resources, reduces taxes, increases per-capita spending on social ills and begins to restore the damaged environment.
-
A new style of industrialism that differs in its philosophy, goals, and fundamental processes from the industrial system that has been the standard. In other words, the industrial revolution is over.
-
Green buildings create delight when entered, serenity and health when occupied, and regret when departed.
