Abstract
The paper introduces William A. McDonough's architecture in the context of current green and ecological trends. The paper makes mention of theoretical background, commonplace examples, and McDonough's perfectly businesslike and successful approach to an 'idealistic' concern of architects that is less often shared by clients.
From the Paper
"Discussion William A. McDonough is known for practical, aesthetic and ecologically sound design. His firm, McDonough and Partners, is known internationally. McDonough has won several significant awards for public and residential structures and is known for adding features beyond the 'no waste' and 'no harm' directives of ecological architecture in buildings that happen to gather solar energy, purify supplies of water, or generate oxygen, while complying perfectly with 'green' sites in which they are erected. McDonough won the 2001 I.D. Forty Design award and in 1999, was nominated 'Designer of the Year' by Interiors magazine."

Abstract
In this paper, a book report relates the aspects of environmentally conscious ideas about waste and recycling within the 21st century in 'Cradle to Cradle: Remaking the Way We Make Things' by William McDonough. The writer discusses that through re-usability and new techniques in recycling, modern industry must reform markets and production methods to help create a far more reusable standard for products to help preserve the ecology of the Earth.
From the Paper
"This book report presents the various environmental and ecological issues that arise in Cradle to Cradle By William McDonough. By examining the main theme of 'waste-less' industry in McDonough's book, one can realize the importance of recycling in the manufacturing process. By re-evaluating the "new industrial revolution" that is bound within this book, McDonough makes a compelling case for a new approach to waste and recycling in the 21st century. The integration of environmentally cooperative production in the new millennium is the scope of McDonough's book, as it proclaims a new approach to industry and ecology."

Abstract
One of the most important qualities of a leader in the military, especially during wartime, is to use good tactical strategy. This not only can be advantageous to win battles, if not the war, but also to lower casualty rates. This paper examines how throughout "Platoon Leader", James McDonough describes his use of tactical strategy and how sometimes it was good and successful and how at other times it was questioned and luckily so.
From the Paper
"McDonough realized that as a leader, it was necessary to place himself in a proper position, both to oversee and to be seen as someone willing to go where he was sending his men. To go with the squads gave McDonough the ability to assess the terrain and evaluate the patrols, something he believed necessary for tactical advantage. When he finally met with the four sergeants, he told them that he would give them "their tactical orders", which "would follow the standard army five-paragraph field order, specifically addressing the situation, the mission, the concept of operations, the support that could be expected, and the command and control arrangements.""
