Genius Stone: Recommended Reading

The Genius Stone mission is to create companies that are living examples of genius at work to create a better place to live. One of our areas of focus is summarized in the following books, which we recommend.

• Biomimicry: Innovation Inspired by Nature – Janine M. Benyus
• Whole Earth Discipline: An Ecopragmatist Manifesto – Stewart Brand
• The Ecology of Commerce: A Declaration of Sustainability – Paul Hawken

As Stewart Brand points out in “Whole Earth Discipline,” major sudden climate change is likely, and will require rapid deployment of innovations discussed in these books. We intend to be the leading edge. Please send us your thoughts, recommended reading and companies who are working in this space who need help.
