Vernacular architecture, by its very nature, is built from local materials that are readily to hand and is thus defined by the geology and ecology of the region and by local climatic conditions. Constructed by the community using traditional tools, these structures are highly practical, energy-efficient, and blend with the landscape. They carry many of the attributes that we are now seeking in green architecture as we struggle to adapt our built environment to the demands and concerns of the climate-change era. "Handmade Houses and Other Buildings" looks at everyday structures all over the world, from whatever wood, grass, earth or stone that was to hand, in ways that offered practical solutions to the challenges of climate or terrain.

This timely book reveals, in layman's terms, the critical role that research has in the future of our planet. Author Daniel D. Watch is passionate about generating widespread support and understanding of the vast research opportunities at hand, whether through financing, political decision-making, education, laboratory construction, or through conducting the actual research. Watch sets the scene with an overview of the impact of research on the global economy; then explores specifics such as research into sustainability; the often controversial areas of biological and biomedical research, including proteomics, bioinformatics, stem cell and biocontainment research; and nanotechnology and neuroscience.
