(Suggest an Edit or Addition)According to Wikipedia, Richard Douthwaite was a British economist, ecologist, campaigner and writer living in Ireland. He died of cancer at his home near Westport, Co. Mayo aged 69. Biography Douthwaite studied engineering at the University of Leeds but failed to complete a degree, and later economics at the University of Essex. He was a masters student at the University of the West Indies, building two homes, and then built concrete boats at a cooperative in Port Antonio, Jamaica in the early 1970s.

He set up and ran a leather crafts factory, later selling the business.
