THE MONTICELLO DIALOGUES, PART 2: A REVOLUTION IN THINKING

From rethinking the concept of the automobile (car as nutrition!) to the "semiology of extreme danger" (nuclear power plants), to McDonough's declaration of interdependence: which he calls The Hanover Principles, this dialogue has more new ideas per minute than all those found in line at the patent office. Spirituality is brought to the labs of the bioengineering industry, horizontal chimneys to Chinese coal fired power plants and this second in the special three hour series recorded at Monticello, Thomas Jefferson's home and architectural masterpiece concludes with musings on the existence of good and evil and a look at the spiritual practitioner as celebrant . Time magazine named William McDonough a "Hero for the Planet" in 1999.
