5.0 out of 5 stars Includes just about everything you need to know., August 30, 2008
By Diggidy Dog 99 "Paul" (California, United States) - See all my reviews
This book includes just about everything that you would need to know about Indoor Air Quality and the anaylsis of it. It's a really big book and to date I don't believe there is another book that can compare to the scope and detail that this book supplies. If you're looking for a general review of the subject, this is not the book for you. If you're in that business and you really need to know your stuff, then this book is the one to buy.
