New softcover book, 240 pages. Preface by David Bellamy

What is Permaculture? Permaculture is a way of life. It shows us how to make the most of our resources by minimising waste and maximising potential. But living ecologically doesn't mean giving everything up. It means relearning the value of nature, to understand new ways of being wealthy.

Each of us can consciously design a lifestyle which is highly productive, without causing environmental damage. This book shows us how to meet our basic needs and still leave the Earth richer than we found it. Permaculture methods can be applied now. Whether you are doing the shopping, looking after the kids, going to work or building your own home; whatever your age, whatever your abilities - permaculture solutions are relevant to the way we live today.

Accessible, informative and packed with practical advice, The Permaculture Way is the environmentally efficient way. This is an indispensible guide for those willing to move away from the consumerist lifestyle, and to live by more enduring values. Permaculture is not about getting away from it all - it's about taking control of our lives, our individual needs, and our common future. Bill Mollison, ecologist and pioneer of permaculture, welcomed 'this major work' as a necessary tool for successful planet-repair.
