1.0 out of 5 stars Rubbish., May 25, 2007
This review is from: Diary of an Eco-builder (Paperback)
I bought this book expecting to get a few tips and ideas for building an eco-friendly house. Yes, the ultimate product is a 'green' building, but it turns out the author spent almost half a million pounds building this massive, wasteful house in the centre of London. Throughout the book he cuts corners and is constantly apologising for using not-so-green methods, for example a massive concrete foundation.
Buy this if you have a lot of money to waste and you don't care how much you damage the environment during the building process.
Don't buy it if you wish to learn about eco-building.
