Biomimicry: Respecting Nature Through Design

This book is a story about sustainability, which was researched, sketched, photographed, designed and written by students of High Tech High. The book addresses case studies in biomimetic design and also focuses on numerous environmental problems in and around San Diego Bay. The student authors have developed their own elegant solutions to these problems using the principles of biomimicry. Importantly, by addressing the tenets of sustainability from the perspective of the social sciences, the authors determine if they are respecting nature through their own designs.
