Synopsis:

In this book (and its companion, Volume 2) you will find encouraging, practical and immediately useful hands-on information from both long-term green building professionals and enthusiastic newcomers to the movement. The fundamentals chapter will quickly introduce you to the main issues and what needs to be achieved. The trends and direction chapter brings you a snapshot of the deep green and the mainstream green agendas. Following these chapters the book goes on into the details of each particular subject one by one. This is a big book and we have covered just about every subject area in some detail to help get you up to speed. However, to be sure you are not left wanting, we have included many references and suggestions for further reading and contacts, either at the end of each story, or in the appendices at the back of the book. We have tried to leave no stone unturned in this edition. If it is not in here then it is not green building!
