(REAL NAME)   
Ever since a magazine article I read I've always been fascinated by earth covered houses. The basic idea is that by putting at least 1yd/1m of earth on the roof and walls, you will dramatically improve insulation.

This book outlines all the major steps in designing and building an earth covered house. They go from site selection to house layout and then on to surrounding features. Every statement is backed up by large quantities of data and references. But the data is always just there to back up the text and never becomes truly overwhelming.

So if the idea of an earth covered house intrigues you this is an ideal book to start with.
