4.0 out of 5 stars
Healthy helps
As a new homeowner, I like this book. It deals with older homes, which I have and actually supplies information that I paid someone to give me. Here it is for the cost of the book. I recommend this for people who own their first home and especially if you are chemically sensitive or chemically aware (of potential dangers).. There are many books on the market...

Is this book about Healthy Homes/MCS or Envrionmentally Friendly Homes or Energy Efficient Design? It tries to do all three and ends up doing none of them well.There is not much current information about toxic building materials/multiple chemical sensivity. If that is what you are looking for, Paula Baker Laporte and John Bower are much better choices. The case studies are outdated. Typical of architects, there are a bazillion architectural building details that you may or may not find useful. As a Home Builder, I found this book a waste of time and money. On the plus side, there is a lot information about water purification systems. It has the prettiest cover of any of the Healthy House books I have seen.

There are many books on the market. This one seemed very useful to me. The only reason I rated it 4 rather than 5 is that it didn't do the work for me. !!! |
