More DescriptionTaylor states that when we can step back from the big to the less, we can show others that there is greater value than that of the dollar. Contemporary society has been taught that the dollar is the only measure that we have of value for everything that we do. Even in sustainability, ?I can not get away from somebody asking, ?What's the return on my investment? A tighter house? Lower energy use, you will also be more comfortable'it's less drafty. It's warmer; it's cooler. Those are the types of things what makes us feel good. He seeks to inspire the reader to become a leader.
