We bought this after recently purchasing the Dummies guide to Sustainable Landscaping, which was also a good purchase. Particularly strong are the "books" on green remodeling choices and the organic gardening. Also included are books on energy efficiency, sustainable cleaning choices, solar power, and yes, sustainable landscaping. A ton of coverage for a $29.99 sticker price, and less on amazon.

This book covers all the basics and then some. It's a good resource to have around for everything from green cleaning products to natural remodeling to solar power.
A good buy and worth it, however, I feel it was too basic for someone, like myself, who has been doing most of this for years already. If you've never looked into green, this is a good place to start. If you are already fairly green, this will validate your choices and give you a few new ones.

This book is a great starting point for anyone who wants to give their life a 180 degree "eco-twist"... I'm an architect currently completing an eco-house project and this book proved to be a great resource for simple common sense knowledge that technical books leave out...
