Nature's Recipe Book

How would nature do it? Biomimicry is a revolutionary emerging science that models nature's genius to design leading edge technologies that work in harmony with nature, not against it. Janine Benyus, a "biologist at the design table," shares mind-bending applications of nature's time-tested recipes and survival tips. Transforming future technologies are the glue of the blue mussel, the beak of the kingfisher, and the interdependent roots of the Seven Sisters Oak.
