If you hate Amazon with every fiber of your soul and would never spend a penny with them, ESPECIALLY on books, then we certainly understand! You can still get a discount from the <a href="https://islandpress.org/search?search_api_views_fulltext=build+beyond&type=book&type=book" class="">publisher</a> by using order code BEYOND.</font></div><div class=""><font size="4" class=""><br class=""></font></div><div class=""><font size="4" class="">These are wild times, folks, but some good news is that natural building is coming fast onto the main stage — when everyone looks around for climate-friendly ways to build, their gaze usually turns this way towards us. Which is a scary thought, given what a ragged, unkempt, and ill-behaved group we are (and of which I am ever proud and delighted to be a member). Be ready, compadres and commadres, to take things to another level.</font></div><div class=""><font size="4" class=""><br class=""></font></div><div class=""><font size="4" class="">cheers,</font></div><div class=""><font size="4" class=""><br class=""></font><div class="">
