                                                                    Using examples from architecture, industrial ecology, sustainableagriculture, ecological wastewater treatment, and many other fields, this book provides a framework for integrating human design with livingsystems. Drawing on complex systems, ecology, and early examples of green building and design, the book challenges us to go further, creating buildings, infrastructures, and landscapes that are trulyrestorative rather than merely diminishing the rate at which things aregetting worse.
