A must have resource!

Probably the best energy efficiency book I've ever bought. Liked the third edition so much last spring and bought it then, even though I knew the 4th edition was coming out in the fall (and I bought it too). Clear, beautifully illustrated with great explanations of sometimes more complex topics. A great reference for not only architects, but engineers also (like me). A must have for anyone interested in sustainable design.

easy to read and easy to understand

if you are an building junkie like me this will really get you off to a good start. Gives you the basics and fundamentals on buildings. go get this for class or if you are contractor. It really is like a mini bible for heating cooling and lighting. go get it

Save Money; Get the PDF

The book arrived as described and it of good quality. But if you are not required to have the physical text, there is a free PDF copy available online. You can get it just by searching the title and PDF. Don’t spend your money if you don’t need to. Cheers.

A Decent Primer

This is a decent undergraduate level resource. It is a functional primer on many of the basics of sustainability including shading principles and heat transfer. The author encourages an improved understanding of many natural principles which were neglected in twentieth century building design. Interestingly, I have no desire to live in an elevated Japanese paper house in the hot humid climate of Chicago, and see a great deal of merit in mechanical cooling in hot humid climates. Never the less I think its a laudable goal for many of us to come to terms with these "natural" ways of dealing with climate.

Content is great, build quality is terrible

This book is full of great knowledge and easy to read, but the build quality of the hardcover is atrocious. mine has dozens of pages fused together, and the "color plates" at the center of the book were not even slightly stapled into the binding so they come completely loose from the book. By far the worst QC I've seen in a textbook.

And it has a lot of good information about that

Miss color in some pictures. Very American but an ok book so far. Using it in a course called Energy use and thermal comfort in buildings! And it has a lot of good information about that! Not the most reasent facts, but in all worth reading (mostley for this class I'm taking then) !!!
