Book Reviews of Good Green Homes: Creating Better Homes for a Healthier Planet

Book Review: A good start...
Summary: 4 Stars

This is an excellent book for those seeking an introduction to environmentally sound home building. There are many good general points and examples of green homes. It is short on details for actual designers but good for home builders who need to read this information desperately and stop building mega-mansions with 5 bedrooms for families with one kid.
