Reviews
and Comments about the Solviva book and work
"Greenhouse GOLD" Organic Gardening Magazine
"The beauty in Anna Edey's work opens up people's hearts
and minds to many alternatives which they had not previously considered
or even imagined being possible."
.....................................................................................Robert
Sardinsky, Rising Sun Enterprises
"Solviva fascinates people because it is both ecologically
and economically efficient. This combination renders pointless
the traditional battle pitting economic developmentagainst ecological
preservation. Solviva is a revolutionary project because it dissolves
the traditional categories we use to evaluate industry."
..........................................................................Andrew
Rodwin
"Your book Solviva is magnificent! I am always pleased to
see someone carrying on good and true environmental and "right
living" work. You're one of the best!"
............................................................John
Shuttleworth, founder of Mother Earth News
"This exciting book is the most talked-about guide to green
living in print, and battered copies turn up at every organic
farm and greenhouse I enter. The Solviva solutions to common problems
are elegant, simple and incredibly efficient, as well as economically
sound.
Anybody who dreams of living a simpler, happier, less environmentally
costly life will read this book to shreds. Joyful rather than
didactic, direct rather than theoretical, it combines the distilled
wisdom and experience of a lifetime into one enchanting book.
Green gardeners will not be able to put it down." ............................Ann
Lovejoy
"Every time I look through the Solviva book I feel so inspired
and encouraged to make changes in our lifestyle. I've probably
read through almost every single book there is on solar design
and solar energy, and there isn't a one of them that brings such
sense of "right living" along with such common sense
stuff as this book." .........................................................................Karen
DeYoung
"I just finished Solviva, and I want to commend you on all
the amazing work you have done. It's enlightening to learn that
so much can be accomplished with such a down-to-earth approach.
Thank you! Thank you for taking the time and effort to go beyond
conventional thinking to devise such simple and elegant solutions
to such pervasive modern-day problems" ........Tom Hawley
"The Solviva book is delightful and intensely inspiring."
.......................Jeff Spicer
"I just picked up your book yesterday and could not bring
myself to put it down until it was finished. INCREDIBLE BOOK!
Most people in my life think I have lost my mind when I talk about
creating a self-sustaining farm. I cannot begin to describe the
comfort you have provide" ....Douglas Scheffer
"I received your book as a Christmas gift - it was the
best present! I love it - and have read it twice now - each time
I am filled with joy to realize that "yes Virginia - it can
be done". .......Lynlee
"We feel your Solviva Greenhouse designs exemplify the epitome
of all that is intelligent, sensitive and progressive in alternative
energy-efficient greenhouse architecture.".......Krys and
Steve Crimi
"I am in love with your book. It inspires me every time
I open it. I see something new every time I read it." ......................................................................................................Judy

Solviva. I showed everyone I knew, and they were also excited.

"Your book is truly one of the best things I have come across
in years. Thanks for being a bold spirit and inspiring pioneer."
........................................................................Mary
Bryant
"I can't words enough to appreciate your book and your voyage
of discovery as revealed in Solviva.. It answers one of my deepest
frustrations: to have read Amory Lovins and all the others of
the late 70s and then see the world turn away from that illumination
and plunge further into the darkness of greed, militarization,
fossil fuels, and our collective slide towards extinction."
................................................................................................................Peter
Walford
"Thank you so much for writing such a wonderful book, especially
for doing everything you have to help us all move along towards
a self-sufficient lifestyle. You have made a major contribution
to the world." .............................................................................................Michael
Skowronski
"Most wonderful book I have ever read. It has changed my
life." .....................Max Meyers
"A dear friend of mine ecstatically lent me the Solviva
book. Pure amazement at the work you have done and do." ..................................................................................Genevieve
Lawler
"If I take one book into the new millenium this would be
it…what a great book…one that finally puts it all together
and works with ease and common sense" .....................Millennial
Goods
"Thanks for your wonderful example! I have read through
your book Solviva and find it is right on the mark, 5 stars, 100%."
.........................................................................Warren
Gysi
"I just finished your book Solviva…it is outstanding….you
are a genius…I can now see how the principles work…I
never would have believed that it could work to the amazing degree
that you have been able to achieve. It's fantastic!" ....................................................
