Helpful Score: 3


This is a very interesting "little" book. The book is the size of a regular paper back novel but is at least twice as thick. It is FULL of information and line drawings which explain what is being said. The author starts at the basics, defining things like floor plans, sections and elevations. Then goes on to define through drawing and words different green building practices. I think is a great book for someone who wants to learn about green and sustainable building. It has no photographs, but that's one of the things that sets this book positively on my recommended list. It doesn't need glossy images, everything is plainly explained clearly through simple drawings.
