Whole Earth Books is an online bookseller and resource guide for idealists, activists, homesteaders, and other people who want to make the world a better place.

We believe in the interconnectedness of all things, and we hope Whole Earth reflects our holistic philosophy. We specialize in books dealing with sustainable development, sustainable agriculture, green living, and social justice.

We also believe in being useful, so in addition to the books and other products you have to pay for, we have also scattered throughout the site as many of the best FREE resources we can find - links to articles, websites, organizations, and more.

We are an affiliate of Amazon.com. Why buy from us instead of going directly to Amazon and cutting out the middleman? First of all, we are not really true middleman. When you buy a product featured on this site, you pay exactly what you would pay if you bought directly from Amazon. Secondly, we do your research for you. This site covers some rather obscure topics. Bee gardening? Tallgrass prairie restoration? A lot of people have no idea these things exist. We've dug up the very best books and internet resources we can find on every subject covered in this site, no matter how obscure, so you don't have to spend as much time digging. We hope you find it useful!

This site is a perpetual work in progress as we add new books and categories. Thank you for visiting! We hope you find your visit enjoyable and informative.
