<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: 100%;">The authors, an architect and a scientist, put forth the principle known as</span><span class="bodytitle" style="font-size: 100%;"> cradle to cradle, </span><span style="font-size: 100%;">whereby materials are immediately reused or recycled when they no longer fulfill their original function. Material thus never ends up as garbage but, as in nature, is endlessly reused.</span><span style="font-size: 100%;"> </span><span style="font-size: 100%;">“Part social history, part green business primer, part design manual, the book makes plain that the </span><span style="font-size: 100%;">re-invention of human industry is not only within our grasp, it is our best hope for a future of sustaining prosperity." <a href="http://www.mcdonough.com/cradle_to_cradle.htm">Click here for more information on this book.</a></span></span><br />
