In an age where dreams of self-sufficiency seem unattainable, Growing Green shows that making a living from growing organic vegetables can be achieved by anyone who is willing to rent land.

- How do I manage different green manures?
Jenny Hall graduated from Liverpool University with a law degree. In 1997 she returned to Lancashire to study for a Masters in Environmental Policy and began working for Growing with Nature, Pilling.

As a film critic, I frequently refrain from writing reviews of works that I don't like. Even though it is a 1984 book, it describes all the important building blocks of analog electronics with great insight and lots of knowledge.. This is a reprint.
