Architecture for Humanity has a new book on sustainable design called Design Like You Give a Damn: Architectural Responses to Humanitarian Crises [amazon link]. Here's a clip from Worldchanging's mini-reviews:
Many of the ideas here will be familiar to WC readers. Barefoot solar engineers, land mine detecting flowers, Hexayurt, Roundabout's PlayPump, the Mine Wolf, Watercone, Anti-Malarial Bednets. But there's plenty of material I'd never before encountered here, and, as an overall resource, it's indespensible.
When I occasionally feel liberal and donate money, I almost always end up routing my donations through Architecture for Humanity. Click here for more links about the organization. (Damn, I don't think I've ever put that many links in a post.)
