I've been out of touch
working on a new book that I hope will be complete by the end of this year. I'm
including the first two paragraphs of the Introduction. They represent a
synopsis that I've been seeking for a long time. I'm blogging them
to stay in touch during this effort.

A
growing population cannot survive without shelter on a planet with limited
resources. The threat is shelter sprawl that consumes our source of life and
shelter intensity that destroys our quality of life. The question is how to
shelter these populations and protect their quality of life within a limited
Built Domain that does not threaten their source of life -- the Natural Domain.
The answer will require symbiotic solutions to
save a parasite that does not recognize it is human. This book introduces a classification
system, vocabulary, and equations built on architectural logic. The logic is tacit knowledge that has
been verbally transferred over centuries. It must become explicit before it can grow. The transition will permit research,
comparison, debate, and the accumulation of knowledge in a measureable language
that can add to the conversation.
