5.0 out of 5 stars
A very good starting point for anyone who is looking to build green.,
By Apprentice (Montreal, Qc Canada) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Green from the Ground Up: Sustainable, Healthy, and Energy-Efficient Home Construction (Paperback)
If your looking for basic information on green housing practices, what's new in green building design, and what can be done without all the complicated, over the head jargon, this is the book for you.Overall the format of the book is very well laid out and up to date. The side articles contain valuable info, giving you alot more information (a.k.a common sense) than some books which sell for twice, or three times the price. The drawings and photos are worthy of being in a very expensive textbook, allowing you to see how things really work ( and why certain things don't, depending on climate, resources, and availability/ cost). The book gives you an overview of every practice used in green building and design today. Bottom line, weather your a novice, just starting out, looking to see what the green building revolution is all about. Or someone (like myself), who has an extensive library on the subject, you will not be disappointed. It's a must have for anyone wanting to build green. |
