MEP | December 31, 2012, 5:05 am | A well written and much needed book on sustainable agriculture for space colonies, it's a must read for people approaching this topic. The basics of permaculture are important to understand. On the other hand, the author also conveys his political and social utopian viewpoints, which can be considered separately, to say the least. |
