Summary |
"Over the course of billions of years nature has undergone a vast process of experimentation and trial and error. A tiny bit at a time, and in numerous clever ways, it has made various animal and plant species increasingly efficient. Biomimicry is a human attempt to take full advantage of that efficiency. Biomimicry allows people to learn from and apply nature's handiwork to fulfill human needs"-- Provided by publisher. |
