The enigma of millennia old Irish Round Towers (one is featured on the cover) is discussed, as well as the dynamics of modern ‘Power Towers’ (smaller versions) inspired by them and used to enhance plant growth.A “…clear, lucid and above all, practical synthesis of the old and new.” – Tom Graves, dowser and author of Needles of Stone and the Diviners Handbook“Moore takes an holistic, practical approach to farm and ecosystem management – an approach that identifies and harmonises with subtle energies, utilizes eco-sound methods and applies ingenious technologies such as energy-conducting coils for improving soil life and plant growth. Her call for ‘the eco-farming imperative’ is one that we must heed if we are to have a sustainable future.” – Nexus magazine“Every so often, a book comes along that will change your perception of the world.
