Media reviews
'Besides the clarity of writing and the broad scope, the work presents accurate information, which may strongly motivate young business people to become Ecopreneurs. One of the merits of the book is the author's positive way of thinking, peaceful way of struggling against limitations, against different ideologies, against our own lack of perspective and responsibility.'
