Rezension zu „The Shark's Paintbrush “
"In this brilliant and hopeful book, Jay Harman shows us how far the new field of Biomimicry has already progressed toward this goal. The Sharks' Paintbrush makes for fascinating and joyful reading - much needed in these dark times." - Fritjof Capra, author of The Tao of Physics and The Hidden Connections "When scientists and engineers mimic nature, more efficient designs - for windmills and fuel efficient vehicles - are the result. Many of these breakthrough are counter-intuitive. Essential reading!" Temple Grandin, author of Thinking in Pictures and Animals in Translation. "His vision of a biomimetic "new global economy" is timely, crucial, and thrillingly eye-opening" Starred Review in the Publishers Weekly.
