Looks like my pre-Christmas shopping list has just grown a little.  I think a trip to Amazon is in order...  Thanks Joel!

As I continue to my efforts to catalog a lot of general resources on food, health, and local economics I find links like this one listed in various google searches The google search was best permaculture books and I was happy to see this pop up about fourth or fifth on the results I thought folks might want to update some permie books that have come out in the 7 years since this post or others that ere not included I am no expert but I would think Toensmier's books should be on there
